Earthquakes Hand Chuluota 5-2 Loss
The Ft. Wayne Earthquakes got a stellar performance from pitcher Kevin Menichini, who handcuffed the Chuluota offense en route to a win, 5-2, at Imperials Ballpark. Menichini, now 1-0, was the winner. In 7.1 innings, he gave up 4 hits, while striking out 6, walking 1, and allowing 2 runs. Jonathan Powell earned save number 18 this season.

Ft. Wayne won the game in part because of Jim Henkemeyer. The shortstop ripped a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Earthquakes ahead, 4-1. For the game, Henkemeyer had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"Obviously, you want to go out there and be good every time out," said Menichini. "I take the ball every day with the same mindset."

Ft. Wayne, at 66-15, occupies first place in the Southern Conference East Division.
