The Tri-City Valleycats finally got a monkey off their collective backs Monday, beating Lowell, 3-1.
The Stedler Division leading Spinners had won all six previous meetings this season, and had taken a lead in the 7th inning, breaking a scoreless deadlock. Tri-City tied it in the 8th.
Then, in the 9th, ex-Met Jenrry Mejia, signed by Boston in the off-season, gave up a 2-run walk-off homer to Joe Perez to send everyone home happy.
Apparenly, game announcer Joe Mixie has pronounciation issues. He read Mejia's name like it's spelled, pronouncing it "Jen-ry". It's actually "Henry", as all Mets fans know. Funny thing is, Mixie also writes the game notes that are sold at the ballpark, and the game notes have pronounciation guides for certain players. Go figure.
==========================================
The season's over for the Albany Dutchmen. Saturday's rain only postponed the inevitable, as Amsterdam completed a two-game sweep Sunday, 10-4, to advance to the league championship series in the Perfect Game Collegiate League. The Dutchmen have yet to reach the championship round since entering the league.
