06/23/2012 8:25 PM - (Ramapo, N.Y.) Rene Leveret's eighth inning home run off starter Bobby Blevins broke a 2-2 tie and ultimately was the game-winner as the Quebec Capitales beat the Rockland Boulders 6-2 Saturday at Provident Bank Park.

Rockland got behind 2-0, but tied the game in the seventh on a two run homer by Keith Brachold, his 10th of the season.

Les Capitales got those run back immediately, however, on Levert's blast, then added two more in the ninth on a two run shot by Jonathan Malo, his second home run of the game and fourth of the series.

Blevins (3-4) gave up four runs, three earned, on seven hits in his 7+ innings of work.

Quebec starter Jeff Duda (5-0) went seven, giving up only two runs on four hits.

Rockland has lost the first two games of the weekend set and looks to avoid the sweep Sunday at 2 p.m. with Julian Sampson on the mound opposite Guillaume Leduc.
