Naturals Win, 8-3, Versus Cardinals
Northwest Arkansas pitcher Steffen Lord did his part in helping his team beat the Springfield Cardinals, 8-3. The right-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. The win hiked the Northwest Arkansas record to 70-59.

With one out in the top of the eighth, Don Rutledge had a chance to do some damage. Springfield was trailing 8-1, but had the bases loaded. Rutledge came to the plate against Manny Mojano, and grounded out, driving in 1 run. But it was not enough to complete a Springfield comeback.
