Pivotal Game 5 Goes to Host Panthers, 8-7
When the games really matter, the Wichita Panthers put on their best show, beating the Newport News Wranglers by a final score of 8-7. Dave Horn was 2-4 with a home run, while adding 5 RBI and scoring once. Wichita now leads Newport News 3-2 in the best-of-7 affair.

Jimmy Johnson was the walk-off hero for Wichita. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Panthers second baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"What a buzz," said Johnson after it was over.

Game 6 is scheduled for Monday at Wranglers Stadium in Newport News.
