Panthers Win at Home, 7-6
The Wichita Panthers overcame a pretty good performance by Spring Park first baseman Justin Thurston, beating the Green Knights, 7-6, at Panthers Park. Thurston went 4 for 6 with a triple, a double, and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. The winner in relief was Rogelio Morales. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 4 hits in 2 innings. He now owns a record of 1-0. Jim Unknown was called on to finish, recording his 1st save.

The Panthers got a big hit from right fielder Mike Williams. In the bottom of the sixth, Williams smacked a 2-run double off Spring Park pitcher Jim Unknown. It was his 2nd double of the season. Suddenly, the Panthers were ahead, 7-6.

In comments to the Wichita Daily, Williams admitted he's been told to improve his work habits. "But," he said, "I know when to take it to another gear."

The win gives the Panthers a record of 13-8.
