The Newport News Wranglers topped the Sikeston Shamrocks, 6-4, in Sub League 2 action at Shamrocks Park. The game was highlighted by the performance of Newport News pitcher Jon Clark. Clark got the win, improving to 2-0. He gave up 5 hits and walked 3 over 6 innings. He allowed no runs. The save went to Steve Gallagher, number 3 for him.

In comments to the Newport News Times, Clark admitted that he doesn't always push himself. "But the results," he said, "speak for themselves."
