Guzmán Slugs Caber Tossers to 4-1 Win
The Perth Caber Tossers dumped the Inverness Thistles, 4-1, in large part due to third baseman Julián Guzmán. On the day, Guzmán hit 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice for the Caber Tossers. Ewan Baxter, the winner, improved to 11-9. He held Inverness to 1 run on 4 hits over 9 innings, while racking up 7 strikeouts. Perth now owns a record of 46-39.

Perth took a 4-1 lead on Guzmán's 11th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which he hit off Patrick Grimley in the top of the eighth, propelled Perth to the win.

Said losing manager Alfonso Flores: "Give the Caber Tossers credit. They played a better game than we did."
