OFFICIAL FRONTIER LEAGUE BOX SCORE

Québec City, QC - On a provincial holiday in the province of Québec, the Ottawa Titans (22-18) got back in the win column with a 9-5 victory over the Québec Capitales (29-10) on Wednesday night, snapping a two-game skid.

For a second-straight game, the Titans opened the scoring. A leadoff double from AJ Wright stood in scoring position with two down, as Jack Eisenbarger (loss, 0-2) walked Michael Fuhrman to put two on. The bottom of the order stepped up, as Thomas Ferroggiaro knocked in one with a single before Mitsuki Fukuda blooped in a single to plate two, making it 3-0 for the visitors.

Brandon Marklund (ND, 0-0) opened for the fourth time this year, escaping trouble in the first. The Capitales answered for a pair in the bottom of the second, with an RBI double from Nicolas Deschamps and a sacrifice fly from Yuta Hamada to make it a one-run game.

The Titans answered back in the third, with Carter Claerhout driving in the first run of his pro career, delivering a sac fly to centre.

With Dwyane Matos on the mound (win, 1-2), Torin Montgomery hammered a solo homer to left-centre, once again making it a one-run game at 4-3.

Taylor Wright and AJ Wright each drove in runs in the fourth, as the Titans went back up by multiple runs. AJ Wright becomes the first player in franchise history to eclipse 250 career RBI in the nation's capital.
