Sox Defeat Missoula 2-1
Missoula, MT- Tonight the Great Falls White Sox defeated the Missoula Osprey 2-1 at Play Ball Park in Missoula. James Casey (1-1) picked up the win in relief as he worked an inning and two-thirds, without allowing a hit or run. The loss went to Greg Smith (3-2) as he worked seven innings, allowing two runs on six hits.
Missoula would score first in the game when they were able to get an RBI single by Rusty Ryal in the first inning.
