Wichita Earns 5-4 Win
Sikeston right fielder Steve Amparan had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Amparan went 4 for 5 with a home run, a double, 2 singles, and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once, even as Wichita beat the Shamrocks, 5-4, in 11 innings. The win went to Zack Scott in relief, making him now 3-0. Jonathan Kellerstrass took the loss for Sikeston. The Panthers, now 15-4, have been red hot.

Wichita used the timely hitting of Justin York to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 11th inning to put the Panthers on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

Wichita manager Ross Meister commended his team for delivering "maximum effort."
