Yankees Suffer 3-1 Home Defeat
The Clearwater Threshers and Tampa Yankees completed their game despite the inclement weather.

Clearwater picked up a win at George M. Steinbrenner Field, bumping off the Tampa Yankees, 3-1. Pitcher Ben Perry was a major reason the Threshers emerged victorious. Perry, who is tied for 5th in the FSL in innings pitched with 150.1, went the distance for Clearwater. He gave up 1 run on 3 hits.

Clearwater took a 3-1 lead on Naomichi Kakuta's 7th home run of the season. The solo home run, which Kakuta hit in the top of the eighth, left Tampa pitcher Bret Adams visibly frustrated.

"I felt good up there," said Kakuta. "I saw the ball well."

The win puts Clearwater at 67-58 this season.
