Streaking Nationals Win Another One, 9-4
A 3-RBI performance from Chris Tomlinson helped the Jacksonville Nationals beat the Sunrise Manor Sunchasers, 9-4. Jacksonville has now won 11 straight.

Matt Higgins had a big 2-run double for the Nationals in the top of the second inning. With Jacksonville leading 2-1 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he got a fastball from Tetsunori Arai, who is tied for 7th in the SC in wins with 7, and swatted a double to center. It was his 47th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Nationals ahead, 4-1.

"The guys are feeling pretty good about where they're at right now," said Nationals manager Zack Glomski. "We have a lot of guys playing with confidence."
