Flying Squirrels 3-1 Winners Versus Reading
The Richmond Flying Squirrels got a stellar effort from pitcher Mike Thompson, helping Richmond score a win over the visiting Reading Fightin Phils, 3-1. The winning pitcher was Thompson, now 7-8. He tossed 6 innings of 4-hit ball, while walking 3 and fanning 7. The Flying Squirrels, at 58-45, have now won 4 straight.

Edmund Richards had a big 2-run home run for the Flying Squirrels in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Richmond trailing 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a fastball from 22-year old left-handed pitcher José López and punished it. The result was his 7th home run of the season, which put the Flying Squirrels on top, 2-1.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said Richards.
