Report by the Armada’s Josh Feldman
The Long Beach Armada (10-12) returns to Telus Field for the second time this season to face the Edmonton Capitals (15-13) for a three-game series. Both the Armada and Capitals have won a series against the other team on the road. Long Beach took two of three games in Edmonton in May, but the Capitals swept Long Beach at Blair Field last week. Long Beach is 2-4 against Edmonton this season, and this is the final regular-season series between the teams. Starters Keith Ramsey, Jose Lima and Ben Fox will each take a turn at the Capitals this week. Lima, a former National League All-Star in 1999 with the Houston Astros, pitched 8 innings in his last outing at Telus Field, giving up no earned runs and did not register a decision.
