Venators Lose to Curse, 7-6
The Celtic Curse topped the Venetian Venators, 7-6, with youngster Howard Robertson playing a key role. Robertson was 2-5 with a home run, while scoring 2 times and driving in 4 for the Curse in the win. The win puts Celtic at 54-80.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Leonard Albici? The Celtic right fielder had a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Curse on top, 3-0. For the game, Albici had 1 double and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"We'll take some time to unwind," said Robertson, "and then get after it again."
