He threw a complete seven innings while giving up just six hits and four runs, while striking out seven in the process.<br \/>\nThe teams met again on Friday to complete the season series, which Aurora swept with a 5 \u2013 2 victory. Thomas D\u2019Andrade improved his record to 2 \u2013 0 on the year working the mound.<br \/>\nThe Jays wrapped up the week on Sunday with a pair of road games in Lisle, first falling to the Clearview Orioles before earning the win over the Midland Indians.<br \/>\nThat brings their record to 14-4-0, good for fourth place in the NDBL standings, and into a tie with the plummeting Giants. The Clearview Orioles have attained the number one spot, holding onto a record of 15-4-1, three points up on the Jays though with two more games played.<br \/>\nAurora will get to enjoy a long awaited four-game home stand this week, opening against the Mansfield Cubs (6-15-1) on Thursday.<br \/>\nOpening pitch is set for 7.30 p.m.<br \/>\nFor stats, schedules, and more information, visit
