The Bronx Bombers rode a solid performance from 28-year-old starting pitcher George Kirby to a win, beating the Tampa Bay Bandits, 4-2, at Tony Gwynn Memorial Field. The Bombers improved their record to 20-17 by beating Tampa Bay.

Orlando Arcia, who finished 5th in the UL in batting average with .301 in 2020, had a direct impact on the outcome. Arcia contributed a 2-run single in the top of the sixth inning to put Bronx up, 3-2.

"George is a gamer," said Bronx manager Scott Gessford.
