9-8 Win Takes Super Troopers to 74-31
The Santa Barbara Super Troopers withstood a fine game by Sikeston catcher Steve Banks at Shamrocks Park, to upend the Shamrocks, 9-8. Banks went 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. Curtis Spears picked up the win, improving his season record to 3-3. He struck out 3 in 6.1 innings. Steve Albrecht, who leads the SL2 in saves with 23, earned the save for Santa Barbara.

Santa Barbara used a clutch at-bat from Mike MacPherson to capture the win. The second baseman hammered a grand slam home run in the top of the third inning to put the Super Troopers ahead, 7-2. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"You can't hate how you win if you win," said Santa Barbara skipper Jimmy Jacobs.

Santa Barbara is rocking and rolling at 74-31.
