The Kansas City Dust Devils converted a terrific effort from starter Mario Paruzzi into a win over the Huntsville Rockets at Ballpark of Austin. The Dust Devils won the game by a final score of 5-2. In 8 innings, Paruzzi surrendered 3 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 2. He allowed 2 runs. Rich Gonzalez earned the save for Kansas City, his 1st.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Bryan Farhi? The Kansas City shortstop had a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Dust Devils on top, 3-0. For the game, Farhi had 1 double and 2 singles in 4 at-bats.

"Mario made some big pitches when he needed to," said Dust Devils manager Jaden White.

Kansas City goes to 17-10 with the win.
