Cuervo Edge Past Railbirds, 2-1
Reading pitcher Dax McKames gave the Cuervo all they could handle, but in the end, San Jose left Welsh Field with a win, 2-1. McKames allowed no runs on 1 hit over 6 innings. Iván Ruíz converted his 31st save in 32 tries. With the win, San Jose pushed its record to 75-61.

The game was at a stalemate until first baseman Derrick Thomas came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Reading pitcher Felipe Estrada, he hit a 1-2 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting San Jose on top, 2-1.

"I like the grit of this ballclub," Thomas said.
