Martinez Lifts Shamrocks to 9-2 Win
The Sikeston Shamrocks defeated the Newport News Wranglers, 9-2, at Shamrocks Park. Leading the charge for Sikeston was left fielder Carlos Martinez. He went 4-5 with a home run and 3 singles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. Xiao-xuan Gong was the winning pitcher. Over 5.2 innings, he allowed 1 run on 5 hits, with 1 walk and 4 strikeouts. The Shamrocks now own a record of 14-18.

An inflection point occurred with one out in the bottom of the second. That's when Shamrocks first baseman Matt Duval hit a fastball from Eduardo Lezcano for a 2-run single. Just like that, Sikeston was up, 2-1.

"They took it to us," said Newport News manager Adam Tate.
