Howell Goes Wild, But Naturals Win
Though he had a terrific game, Joe Howell could not prevent his team, the Tulsa Drillers, from absorbing a loss. Northwest Arkansas won the game, 8-5. Howell went 3-3 with 2 home runs and a walk, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. Del Jacobs picked up the save for Northwest Arkansas, his 1st of the year. Tulsa, with the loss, is still a hardy 9-4.

Gilberto Encarnación chipped in a run-scoring single for Northwest Arkansas in the bottom of the eighth. For the game, the first baseman had 3 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 2 singles, 1 run scored, and 2 runs batted in.

Encarnación told a Northwest Arkansas News reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.
