Jacksonville Loss Tarnishes Fine Game by McFarland
Runs were plentiful at Wolverines Ballpark.

Bobby McFarland had a good game, but he could not keep the Jacksonville Nationals from falling, 11-9, to the Riverside Wolverines at Wolverines Ballpark. The Jacksonville shortstop hit 3 home runs, while adding 6 RBI and scoring three times in the loss. Riverside goes to 3-1.

Carlos Cordero chipped in a 2-run home run for Riverside in the bottom of the fourth. For the game, the shortstop had 2 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 RBI.

"It's not about individual awards," Cordero told a Riverside Herald reporter after the game. "It's about winning championships. That's what we play for."
