Rock Cats Squelch Thunder Offense in Shutout Win
The New Britain Rock Cats got a stellar effort from pitcher Brad Mason, helping New Britain score a win over the visiting Trenton Thunder, 5-0. The win lifted the New Britain record to 90-49.

The Thunder had been locked in a 0-0 tie with the Rock Cats going into the bottom of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the 24-year old catcher Raúl Flores came to the plate. Flores hit a 2-run home run on a 1-1 changeup from Trenton hurler Curt Watson. It was Flores's 4th home run of the year.

"It felt good to put the barrel on the ball," said Flores.
