Dust Devils Win at Home, 12-5
The Kansas City Dust Devils beat the Cottage City Cannonballers by a score of 12-5. Kansas City left fielder Eric Hying deserved the lion's share of the credit. Hying went 1 for 1 with a home run and 3 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the Dust Devils. Alex Balladares, now 2-0, picked up the win in relief. He allowed no runs on no hits in 3.2 innings. The victory puts Kansas City at 49-72.

Derrick Banford had a big 2-run home run for the Dust Devils in the bottom of the second inning. With Kansas City trailing 3-2 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a fastball from 20-year old left-handed pitcher Jeff Groves and punished it. The result was his 1st home run of the season, which put the Dust Devils on top, 4-3.

"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Hying.
