Baltimore laid the wood on Toronto at Garrison Common Grounds.

Baltimore starter Bill Silvers ran into little resistance from Toronto hitters, as his team cruised to victory, 18-1. The winning pitcher was 34-year old right-handed pitcher Nate Shine. He tossed 126 pitches over 9 innings, allowing 1 run on 6 hits.

Baltimore used a well-timed hit by Rich Spencer to capture the win. The center fielder socked a bases-clearing double in the top of the second inning to put the Bannermen ahead, 6-0. Though it was his only hit in 6 at-bats, it was important.

Toronto manager called the blowout loss "a real dud."

Toronto is 3-2 after the loss.
