Rams Win Nail-Biter in 11
Well, that's how to end a game in style.

The Derby Rams faced a tenacious opponent in London pitcher Ángel Moreno, but still scratched out a win at Derby Stadium by a final score of 5-4 in 11 innings. Moreno went 10.2 innings and allowed 5 runs. Leo O'Toole notched the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 4 innings. His record now sits at 1-0.

Frazer Watson played the role of hero for Derby. In the bottom of the 11th, he launched a solo home run off Ángel Moreno to win the game. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was the decisive blow.

"I know we have our doubters," said London manager Harry Deane. "But I still have high hopes for this team."

The last-place Rams hiked their record to 31-64.
