Dust Devils Win 11-8 Walk-Off
The Kansas City Dust Devils beat the St. Catharines Blue Jays, 11-8, at Kansas City Grounds. The win was due in part to shortstop Brian Wheaton, who went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Kansas City now sits at 42-62, while St. Catharines falls to 48-56.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With one out, Wheaton hit a fastball from Mike Richert for a 3-run home run. The Dust Devils, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"The crowd was boisterous today," said Wheaton.
