Iowa Tacks 3-2 Loss on Oklahoma City
In a low-scoring affair between the Iowa Cubs and the Oklahoma City Dodgers, pitcher Jim Kemp was the difference between victory and defeat. The Iowa left-hander earned accolades for his stellar performance in the 3-2 Cubs win. Kemp yielded 2 runs over 7 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 3, and struck out 5. His record improves to 15-8. The last-place Cubs now have a record of 55-66.

Norbert Gardner had a big 2-run triple for the Cubs in the bottom of the second inning. With Iowa leading 1-0 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he got a fastball from 27-year old right-handed pitcher Chris Watts and swatted a triple to right. It was his 2nd triple of the season, and more importantly, it put the Cubs ahead, 3-0.

Iowa manager Gera Alvarez called it "a pretty good win."
