Butte Loses Again, 2-0
In a low-scoring contest between the Moose Jaw Diamond Dogs and the Butte Americans, Matt Valdez was the X factor. The Moose Jaw left-hander spearheaded the 2-0 win. Valdez yielded no runs over 6.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 1, and struck out 5. His record improves to 5-0. Moose Jaw sits in second place in the Pioneer League North Division at 31-21.

Diego Alvardo had a direct impact on the outcome. Alvardo contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the fourth inning to put Moose Jaw up, 1-0.

Afterward, Butte manager Samuel Sánchez said: "We were guessing wrong on pitches, and that's something we've got to get away from."
