5-3 Purple Wave Win over Crawdads Evens Season Record
The New Rochelle Purple Wave beat the Hickory Crawdads, 5-3. New Rochelle pitcher and Minneapolis, Minnesota, native Kevin Clinger led the way. The victory gives the Purple Wave a record of 49-49.

Jimmy Williams had a big 3-run home run for the Purple Wave in the bottom of the fourth inning. With New Rochelle leading 2-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a slider from 34-year old right-handed pitcher Ed Jenkins and punished it. The result was his 5th home run of the season, which put the Purple Wave on top, 5-0.

"I went out and just tried to do my job," said Clinger.
