New Britain Rock Cats pitcher Steve Nelson was in top form, leading his team past the Altoona Curve, 4-1. Altoona, at 58-77, has lost 5 straight.

The decisive blow was delivered by Juan Ortíz in the bottom of the tenth when he hit a 3-run home run off 24-year old right-handed pitcher Ernesto Paredes to win the game for New Britain. The home crowd went nuts.

"It's great when the crowd gets into it," Ortíz said.
