Raith can't Hyde from Jake
Jake Hyde scored his fifth goal of the season as Dundee kept up their promotion push by defeating Raith 1-0.
The visitors applied the early pressure and Craig McKeown wasted a decent chance after 22 minutes, heading wide from a corner when well placed.
Their pressure paid off 10 minutes before half-time, Nicholas Riley's right-wing cross was met by Hyde's thumping header to give the keeper no chance.
Raith tried to get back into the game, and John Baird's 20-yard piledriver was well gathered by Robert Douglas, but Dundee looked the most dangerous of the two sides, and Ryan Conroy forced a smart save from David McGurn.
Substitute Jamie McCluskey should have made the game safe in the last minute, but headed Conroy's corner straight at McGurn.
