Dunedin Tops Virginia Beach, 8-2, Claims 3-2 Series Lead
The Dunedin Blue Jays moved to within one game of the Divisional Series, downing the Virginia Beach Mariners on the road at Virginia Beach Ballpark by a score of 8-2. Blue Jays second baseman Javin Truitt was 2-3 with a double and 2 walks. He scored 3 times. The win gives the Blue Jays a 3-2 advantage in the best-of-7 Wild Card Series.

Dunedin used a clutch at-bat from Paulo Keith to capture the win. The left fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Blue Jays ahead, 4-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"We'll take some time to unwind," said Truitt, "and then get after it again."

Game 6 is scheduled for Friday at Florida Auto Exchange Stadium in Dunedin.
