Loss Mars Fine Effort by Espinoza
Waco shortstop Chris Espinoza pounded Tacoma Thunder Wolves pitchers at Thunder Wolves Stadium, but it was not enough to keep the Warlocks from falling, 21-17. Espinoza hit 2 home runs, while adding 7 RBI and scoring twice. The win has Tacoma at 5-10.

With Tacoma leading 11-10 in the bottom of the fourth, John Yarbrough hit a run-scoring single off Waco pitcher Javier Pacheco. It put the Thunder Wolves ahead 12-10.

"I don't feel you win baseball games by working harder than the other team or 'wanting it more,'" Yarbrough told the Tacoma News. "You win just by scoring more runs."
