The Dragons needed a late run but they outlasted the White Caps in an 8-7 game that saw both sides combine for five errors.  Jordan Smith was decent in his start and while he gave up four runs, just one of them was earned.  He gave up four hits and a walk with six strikeouts in five innings.  Jose Rojas closed things out with an impressive ninth inning.  He struck out two and didn’t give up a baserunner.

Juan Francisco was the hitting star.  He went three for five with a double, two RBIs and a run.  Drew Stubbs also had a nice game and he went two for four with a walk and two runs.
