The Naturals grabbed a win, 5-3, at Arvest Ballpark, overcoming a fine effort from Springfield pitcher Tony Alexander. Alexander went 6 innings and allowed 2 runs. Leonardo González picked up the win in relief. His record improves to 2-3. Tomas Alastre suffered the loss. Northwest Arkansas is now 29-33, Springfield 30-31.

Northwest Arkansas went up, 4-3, on Bernardo Vázquez's 8th double of the season. The 2-run double, which Vázquez hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Springfield pitcher Tomas Alastre shaking his head.

"We ground out the win," said Vázquez. "That's all that matters."
