Ft. Wayne Topples Jacksonville, 12-6
Though he had a terrific game, Kenneth Bates could not prevent his team, the Jacksonville Nationals, from absorbing a loss. Ft. Wayne won the game, 12-6. Bates went 2 for 3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Jacksonville, with the loss, is 6-7.

Edgardo Perez had a big 2-run double for the Earthquakes in the top of the fifth inning. With Ft. Wayne leading 2-1 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from 20-year old right-handed pitcher Hidenori Miyata and swatted a double to center. It was his 4th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Earthquakes ahead, 4-1.

"The name of the game is scoring runs," Perez said. "We did a good job of that today."
