Noel Weatherhead was the difference-maker for the Plymouth Rockers in what turned into a shootout with the Franklin Cubs. Weatherhead, who is tied for 10th in the NC in triples with 2, went 2-for-4 in the 16-13 Rockers win. Plymouth goes to 40-41, Franklin to 38-43.

With Plymouth leading 5-1 in the top of the fourth, Weatherhead batted against Franklin pitcher Naohiro Goto. Weatherhead hit a fastball to left-center for a grand slam home run. His 27th home run of the season put the Rockers on top, 9-1.

"This game had a little bit of everything," said Weatherhead.
