Crawdads Earn Late Win
Fans witnessed a whale of a game between the Hickory Crawdads and Tucson Raccoons.

The Tucson Raccoons could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Kareem Craig into a win. Instead, the Hickory Crawdads prevailed, 3-2. Craig threw 5.2 innings of shutout ball. Hickory leads the Stripes Conference West Division by 5½ games.

With a runner on 1st and no one out in the bottom of the eighth inning, second baseman Cory Sperber delivered big for the Crawdads. Hickory was trailing 2-0 when he belted a 2-run home run.

"It was a good effort all around," said Sperber.
