Savannah Sand Gnats right-hander Rubén Villanueva pitched a good game against the Greenville Drive at Fluor Field at the West End, leading his team to victory, 5-0. Villanueva yielded no runs over 8 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 4, and struck out 5. His record improves to 1-0. The win hiked the Savannah record to 74-63.

Savannah used a well-timed hit by Sean O'Connor to capture the win. The center fielder socked a bases-clearing double in the top of the second inning to put the Sand Gnats ahead, 4-0. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it was important.

"I'm just trying to make sure I'm focused for each and every pitch," said Villanueva.
