Sunrise Manor Downed, 7-5, by Earthquakes
The Ft. Wayne Earthquakes overcame a pretty good performance by Sunrise Manor shortstop Steve Sheffield, beating the Sunchasers, 7-5, at Field of the Sunchasers. Sheffield went 3-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Alejandro Rivera, now 1-0, was credited with the win in 3 innings of relief. He allowed 2 runs on 4 hits, while striking out 0 and walking 0. Getting the save was Marcos Patino, his 3rd.

Ft. Wayne used the timely hitting of Edgardo Perez to seize the win. The left fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Earthquakes on top, 7-5. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I like our moxie," said Earthquakes manager Du-sung Moon.

With the loss, Sunrise Manor falls to 4-2.
