Big Day for Springer in 8-3 Rockets Win
The Huntsville Rockets topped the Newark Flyers, 8-3, at Newark Fields. Huntsville designated hitter Nick Springer was a spark plug for the offense. He went 2-5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 times and drove in 6. Alejandro Aguilar was the winning pitcher. Over 5 innings, he allowed 1 run on 3 hits, with 2 walks and 2 strikeouts. Huntsville has run its win streak to 6 consecutive.

With Huntsville leading 2-1 in the top of the sixth, Springer hit a fastball from Ben Cox for a grand slam home run. It was his 10th home run of the season and put the Rockets ahead, 6-1.

Springer called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."
