The Sugar Land Skeeters beat the Camden Riversharks 5-4 on Tuesday night. The offense started early for Sugar Land, as they pushed across two runs in the first inning. The first run came in on an RBI double from one of the newest Skeeters, Jeff Dominguez, and an RBI single from Koby Clemens made it 2-0. Camden scored in the second inning on a Delwyn Young solo homerun to make it 2-1. Aaron Bates extended the Sugar Land lead to 3-1 in the third inning with his first of his two RBIs singles.
