Hickory Upended by Palm Springs, 4-2
Palm Springs pitcher Rob Stech had a large part in his team subduing the Hickory Crawdads, 4-2. The opposition could never mount much of a rally against the right-hander. Stech, now 4-6, was the winner. In 5.1 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 8, walking 1, and allowing 2 runs. By defeating Hickory, the last-place Heat improved to 60-81.

The Heat got a big hit from catcher Clay Tucker. Facing Hickory pitcher Dustin Patton in the bottom of the fifth, Tucker pounded a solo home run to right-center. His 6th home run of the season put the Heat ahead, 3-1.

Stech said his team "played with focus."
