McWilliams Stellar as Blue Wahoos Coast to 12-1 Win
The Pensacola Blue Wahoos locked up a win at Five County Stadium, knocking off the Tennessee Smokies, 12-1. On the mound for Pensacola was right-hander Sam McWilliams. He played a major role in the triumph. Pensacola is third in the North Division with a record of 57-66.

McWilliams, who dominated for Pensacola, earned the victory to move to 10-8. He was in control the whole game, scattering 5 hits over 9 innings, while striking out 7. Tennessee batters could never bunch up enough hits to produce a rally.

"We'll need a much better effort, the next time out," said losing manager Kevin Riggs.
