Dust Devils Pull Off Thrilling 11-10 Win in Extras
Kansas City Grounds did not lack for drama.

The Kansas City Dust Devils beat the Santa Rosa Desperados, 11-10, in 12 innings at Kansas City Grounds. John Hunt, in particular, was impressive. He went 5 for 6 with 2 doubles, 3 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. Kansas City currently is in 4th place in the Northern A West Division at 35-53.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the 12th inning, when Kansas City third baseman Mat Woolwine, facing Mike Stack, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Dust Devils the 11-10 win.

"It was a test of wills," said Jaden White, the Kansas City skipper. "I'm glad we came out of it with a win."
