The Newport News Wranglers topped the Mt. Vernon Cyclones, 16-5, at Wranglers Stadium. Newport News third baseman Curt Lirette was a spark plug for the offense. He hit 2 home runs. He scored 3 times and drove in 7. Jim Unknown earned the save for Newport News. The Wranglers now have a mark of 73-65.

Jose Ramos had a big grand slam home run for the Wranglers in the bottom of the second inning. With Newport News leading 2-1 and the bases loaded, he sized up a knuckle curve from Tyler Bourassa, who is tied for 7th in the SL2 with a 7.7 K/9 rate, and punished it. The result was his 19th home run of the season, which put the Wranglers on top, 6-1.

"Their at-bats were really impressive against us," said losing manager Dan McClure.
