Greensboro Dealt 8-5 Defeat
The Santa Ana Black Aces beat the Greensboro Naturals, 8-5, at Naturals Grounds. The win was due in part to shortstop Chris Mitchell, who went 4-5 with a home run, 2 doubles, and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Santa Ana pitcher Mike Hrdlicka got the win, upping his record to 5-1. Danny de Anda got the loss. Santa Ana now has a record of 80-39 with the win.

Santa Ana used a clutch at-bat from Clark Ulery to capture the win. The left fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Black Aces ahead, 6-4. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Ulery told the Santa Ana Daily.
