Sheffield Helps Miami Outscore Portland
The Miami Cuban Giants stopped the Portland Sea Dogs, 13-11, at Griffith Stadium. The Cuban Giants got a big game from Gary Sheffield, who hit 2 home runs, while scoring 4 runs and driving in 7. The win puts Miami at 24-24 this season.

The game was all tied up in the top of the ninth, until Sheffield delivered big-time for Miami, stroking a dramatic bases-clearing double off Mark Melancon. The game-changing hit put the Cuban Giants on top, 12-9.

"It's the best feeling when you come through for your teammates," said Sheffield.
