Skyliners Earn 9-4 Home Win
New York starter Matt Heydt pitched well against the Los Angeles Stars at Skyliners Stadium. The right-hander led his team to a win, 9-4. In 8 innings, Heydt surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 3. He allowed 4 runs. The Skyliners improved their record to 10-14 by beating Los Angeles.

Mario Maldonado had a big 2-run double for the Skyliners in the bottom of the second inning. With New York leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a sinker from Adam Scali, who leads the TOBA with a 1.84 ERA, and swatted a double to center. It was his 2nd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Skyliners ahead, 3-0.

"The key at this level is throwing strike one," said Heydt. "Successful pitchers do it."
