Thanks in large part to third baseman Howard Robertson, the Celtic Curse beat the London Knights, 9-1. Robertson hit 2 home runs, while scoring 3 and driving in 4. The win has Celtic at 45-76.

Marko Virjonen, who is tied for 4th in the RL with a .905 OPS, chipped in a 2-run home run for Celtic in the bottom of the third. For the game, the second baseman had 2 hits in 3 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 runs batted in.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said Virjonen.
