Pendergrass Excels, Nashua Blows Out Kalamazoo
Ben Pendergrass impressed in the 14-3 Nashua win over Kalamazoo. Pendergrass, who is tied for 3rd in the S-A in hits with 142, was 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 4 times and drove in 2. The losing streak for Kalamazoo has now reached 4 games.

The game turned with two out in the bottom of the fourth. That's when Pendergrass hit a run-scoring single off Michael Brumfield. It propelled the Sweepers into the lead, 3-2.

"We had that killer instinct," Pendergrass said after the game.
