Gilbreath Helps Panthers Beat Wranglers, 10-8
The Wichita Panthers dumped the Newport News Wranglers, 10-8, in large part due to second baseman Joe Gilbreath. On the day, Gilbreath was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 doubles, while scoring 3 and driving in 5 for the Panthers. Wichita reliever Antonio Rondon picked up the win, raising his record to 3-2. Jim Unknown was tagged with the loss. Zack Scott closed it out for his 2nd save.

In the top of the seventh, the Panthers grabbed the lead when Gilbreath hit his 4th double of the season. The bases-clearing double off Jim Unknown made it 8-6, Wichita.

"See ball, hit ball. When I think too much, that's when I get in trouble," Gilbreath told the Wichita Daily.

The third-place Panthers are now 27-23, the Wranglers 24-26.
