Alpines Lose By a Run at Wichita
The inspired effort of Savannah designated hitter Bruce Elrod was not enough to prevent a loss, 6-5, to the Wichita Panthers. Elrod was 3 for 3 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 3 runs. The winning pitcher was 22-year old right-handed pitcher Chris Soto. He tossed 65 pitches over 5 innings, allowing 2 runs on 7 hits. Eddie Clickner wrapped it up, recording his 7th save.

George Gericke had a key at-bat with two out in the bottom of the fourth for Wichita. With the bases loaded and the Panthers leading 5-2, he drew a walk, driving in 1 run.

"We just try to have good at-bats, whether we're winning, losing, or tied," said Gericke.

With the win over Savannah, the Panthers improved to 59-54.
