Parker Helps Thunder Wolves Defeat Golden Gophers, 7-6
The Tacoma Thunder Wolves beat the Little Rock Golden Gophers by a score of 7-6. Tacoma third baseman Matt Parker deserved the lion's share of the credit. Parker was 3-3 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the Thunder Wolves. Tacoma is 50-71 and Little Rock, with the loss, 92-29.

Tacoma went up, 7-6, on Hector Soto's 9th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Soto hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Little Rock pitcher Jeremy Harrison shaking his head.

"It wasn't a pretty victory," said Soto, "but we got it done."
