Super Troopers Even With Panthers After Home Win
The Santa Barbara Super Troopers and the Wichita Panthers will take the Division Series to a decisive 7th game.

Santa Barbara left-hander Miguel Romero had a big role in the win. He threw 6.2 innings of 4-hit ball.

Ruben Vences helped his team take an early lead with a bases-clearing double. It came in the first inning, making the score 4-0, Super Troopers.

"It was just a matter of executing," said Santa Barbara manager Tyler Haskin.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Car Ramrod Park in Santa Barbara.
