Buzz Drop Tarantulas with Late Score
Hideki Irabu pitched a gem to lead Salt Lake City to a 2-1 victory over the Tucson Tarantulas. Salt Lake City reliever Donnie Elliott picked up the win, upping his record to 2-1. Stan Belinda took the loss. Earning his 9th save for Salt Lake City was Paul Spoljaric.

Brian Johnson made it 2-1 in favor of Salt Lake City when he delivered a run-scoring single. It came with two out in the top of the ninth. The Buzz went on to win.

"The old adage is true," said Irabu. "Good pitching stops good hitting."

Salt Lake City has now won 3 in a row.
