Cortéz, Shmoes Sink Scholars Again in Game 3
The Mexicali Shmoes are one game away from a sweep of the Utrecht Scholars today after a road win at Utrecht Park, 8-1. Shmoes catcher Rafael Cortéz was a key contributor. He went 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Mexicali now holds a 3-0 advantage in the best-of-7 NAFTA Trophy.

Mexicali used the bat of Dave Sawyer to get the win. The designated hitter hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Shmoes ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 2 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"We don't have much margin for error now," Scholars manager Kyoichi Yoshimura said. "We need to figure out the problem and fix it, immediately."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Utrecht Park in Utrecht.
