Comets Lose, 8-6, in 11
It took 11 innings, but the Nashua Sweepers were able to beat the Kalamazoo Comets, 8-6, at Wizards Stadium. Mike Middlebrooks provided some offensive muscle for Nashua. He went 2 for 5 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. The win was credited to 23-year old right-handed pitcher Bryan Engel in relief. His record improves to 2-1. Rich Pumphrey took the loss. The win gives Nashua a season record of 50-43.

Nashua used the hitting of Matt Jackson to pick up the win. The second baseman clubbed a run-scoring single in the top of the 11th inning to put the Sweepers on top, 7-6. For the game, Jackson had 1 home run and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"We had some nice at-bats at the right time," said Sweepers manager Tony Allen.
