Late Offense Lifts Walnut Park to 6-2 Victory
The Hickory Crawdads got a sterling performance from pitcher Jim Savoie, but the Walnut Park Bobcats still prevailed, 6-2. Savoie threw 6.1 innings of 5-hit ball. The winner was Mike Wroten, who threw 106 pitches over 8 innings. The right-hander was charged with 2 runs on 10 hits. The loss has the Crawdads at 14-13.

Walnut Park needed the clutch hitting of Alex Ochoa to seal the deal. The third baseman swatted a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Bobcats on top, 4-2. For the game, Ochoa had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Solid game, solid win tonight," said a smiling Ochoa.
