Heathens Get Clutch Win, 5-4
Wet weather did not postpone the Halifax-Carolina ballgame.

The Halifax Heathens defeated the Carolina Reapers in 10 innings, 5-4, in part because of right fielder Eric Kukowski. Kukowski went 2-2 with a double and 3 walks, while scoring 3 times for the Heathens. Jeff Buck, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 7th save.

Halifax used the timely hitting of Juan Gonzalez to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Heathens on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"This was one of those 'not to be denied' games," said Halifax field general David Morris.

The Heathens, at 17-16, lead by one game in their division.
