Sudbury Squanders Great Game by Carvalho
The inspired effort of Sudbury third baseman Michel Carvalho was not enough to prevent a loss, 8-7, to the Kyiv Cossacks. Carvalho went 3-4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 4 runs and driving in 2. Kyiv, at 69-49, is 6½ games up in the Federation League Knuckleheads Division.

Kyiv needed the clutch hitting of Steve Buffington to seal the deal. The third baseman swatted a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Cossacks on top, 8-7. For the game, Buffington had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"What's not to like about a win?" said Buffington.
