Bowsers Earn Clutch Win, 4-3
Ballpark of Columbus was the site of a competitive game between the Atlanta Aggies and Columbus Bowsers.

The Atlanta Aggies could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Cody Kucharski into a win. Instead, the Columbus Bowsers prevailed, 4-3. Kucharski threw 7.2 innings of 3-hit ball. Columbus has now won 4 in a row.

The decisive blow was delivered by Jose Cuellar in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a run-scoring double off 18-year old right-handed pitcher Tyler Murphy to win the game for Columbus. The home crowd went nuts.

"The house was rockin'," said Cuellar.
