Dust Devils Win, Now 41-41
Kansas City Dust Devils starter Paul Hardin found his groove in his team's 6-5 win over the Tampa Capitals. Hardin, now 8-4, was the winner. In 6 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 7, walking 2, and allowing 3 runs. Etienne Erbetto closed it out for Kansas City, earning his 10th save.

Eric Hying drew 1 walk in 5 trips to the plate for Kansas City. The 21-year old left fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Andy Devane. It was his 40th RBI of the season.

"It wasn't our best performance," said Hying, "but a win in this league is nothing to sniff at."

The Dust Devils improved their record to 41-41 by beating Tampa.
