Kelley hits 2 home runs in Imperials Win
The Chuluota Imperials topped the Riverside Wolverines, 11-5, at Wolverines Ballpark. Chuluota right fielder Justin Kelley was a spark plug for the offense. He slugged 2 home runs, while adding 6 RBI and scoring twice. The Wolverines fall to 12-15 and continue their uneven start to the 2023 season.

Jim Unknown had a big grand slam home run for the Imperials in the top of the second inning. With Chuluota trailing 1-0 and the bases loaded, he sized up a changeup from 18-year old right-handed pitcher Jorge Ospina and punished it. The result was his 2nd home run of the season, which put the Imperials on top, 4-1.

"It's still just a game," said Unknown, "whether you win or lose."
