Drillers Drop Naturals, 7-4
Tulsa right-hander Jesús Amezcha pitched his team to victory over the Northwest Arkansas Naturals at Arvest Ballpark. The final score was 7-4. This loss makes it 10 in a row for Northwest Arkansas.

Tulsa used the timely hitting of Tony Browning to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Drillers on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We've hit a lull," said Northwest Arkansas manager Steve Falteisek.
