Vipers Fall Short, 8-7, at Cincinnati
The timely hitting of Mark Vientos helped the Cincinnati Stars down the Texas Vipers, 8-7. Vientos went 2 for 3 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the Stars. Daulton Jefferies, the winner, is now 3-1. He struck out 2 and walked 0 over 5 innings, while allowing 5 runs on 9 hits. Colin Holderman got the save, his 10th in 13 chances.

The Vipers had been locked in a 4-4 tie with the Stars going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the 34-year old catcher Jacob Stallings came to the plate. Stallings hit a 2-run double on a first pitch slider from Texas hurler Colin Rea. It was Stallings's 8th double of the year.

"You start putting runs on the board and winning, everyone's going to get excited," said Vientos.

The Stars go to 44-79 with the win.
