Beltré Slugs Mounties to 10-7 Win
Ottawa third baseman Adrián Beltré had 3 ribbies while helping his team defeat the Kansas City Monarchs, 10-7. The first-place Monarchs now sit at 58-56.

Gary Carter had a big 3-run home run for the Mounties in the bottom of the fifth inning. With Ottawa trailing 6-5 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a fastball from 26-year old right-handed pitcher José Rijo and punished it. The result was his 39th home run of the season, which put the Mounties on top, 8-6.

"Every time you put a 'W' on the board is always good," said Beltré.
