Celtic Tacks 7-3 Loss on Milan
The Celtic Curse trumped the Milan Insubres, 7-3, at Croke Park Diamond. Celtic left fielder Jose Rodriguez was terrific. He was 3 for 4 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3 times. The victory puts Celtic at 56-81.

The game was on the line with two out in the top of the seventh inning, but Archie Floyd didn't flinch. With runners on 1st and 3rd and Milan trailing 5-3, Floyd retired Tilmão Mercejana to end the threat. "Nothing to it," said Floyd, with a wink.
