Panthers Pick Up 13-1 Win Against Riverside
The Buckeye Local Panthers handed the Riverside Wolverines a sound defeat, 13-1, at Cincinnati Grounds. Marco Garcia, the 2nd overall pick in the 2025 draft, was a main contributor to the win. He was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3 for Buckeye Local. With this game in the books, Buckeye Local is 62-65, Riverside 49-78.

Buckeye Local got a lift in the bottom of the fourth from third baseman Marshall Swanson, who hit a fastball to center for a 2-run home run. His 11th home run of the season put the Panthers up, 2-1.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said Garcia.
