Panthers Lose, 9-3, to Jacksonville
The Jacksonville Nationals locked up a win at Cincinnati Grounds, knocking off the Buckeye Local Panthers, 9-3. On the mound for Jacksonville was left-hander Chris Gagarian. He played a major role in the triumph. The Nationals, now 6-0, have played some good baseball in the early going.

Jacksonville right fielder Gabe Ippolito contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the third. With two down, he hit a fastball to right field for a 2-run single. It was his 9th hit of the season and put the Nationals ahead, 4-0.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Ippolito. "And not try to do too much."
