Ribadeneira Shines in 11-8 El Paso Win
No one was more impactful than António Ribadeneira in the 11-8 El Paso win over Detroit. Ribadeneira, who is tied for 10th in the ABL with a .396 on-base percentage, was 3-4 with a double, 2 singles, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 2 and driving in 4. The save went to Gregor Finlater, number 9 for him. The Blue Gills, now 8-19, continue their slow start.

In the top of the fifth, El Paso catcher Katsuyuki Kanda had a productive at-bat. With the bases loaded and one out, Kanda stroked a run-scoring single to center. It made the score 7-5, El Paso. For the game, he went 2-5 with 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once.

"It's fun to come to the yard every day when you're winning," said El Paso manager AP MP.
