Panthers Bank 9-2 Win
The Wichita Panthers topped the Newport News Wranglers, 9-2, with second baseman Gabriel Romo playing a big role. Romo went 4 for 4 with a double and 3 singles, while scoring 3 runs for the Panthers in the win. Satoshi Nishiyama, the winning pitcher, improved to 2-0. He pitched 5.1 innings, giving up 2 hits and no runs, while striking out 2 and walking 2. The win puts Wichita at 10-7.

Karl Aitcheson had a big 2-run home run for the Panthers in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Wichita leading 1-0 and a runner on 2nd, he sized up a changeup from 19-year old right-handed pitcher Jason McCoart and punished it. The result was his 2nd home run of the season, which put the Panthers on top, 3-0.

"What a dismal performance," lamented losing manager Chris Rice.
