Warlocks Snag 4-1 Win
Chris Childress never let Greensboro get something going. The Waco right-hander commanded his changeup in pitching the Warlocks to a 4-1 win. The Naturals drop to 11-11 and continue their inconsistent start to the 2026 season.

Waco used the timely hitting of David Torres to seize the win. The left fielder stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Warlocks on top, 4-1. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I thought we played a nice game," Torres told the Waco Observer. "Good pitching, timely hitting, it was all there."
