Sluggers Win, 4-2, Versus Carolina
IBM Field was the site of a competitive game between the Carolina Riptides and St Louis Sluggers.

The St Louis Sluggers locked up a win at IBM Field, knocking off the Carolina Riptides, 4-2. On the mound for St Louis was right-hander Sandy Alcantara. He played a major role in the triumph. Tim Herrin snagged the win in relief. He goes to 1-0 on the season. Brooks Raley suffered the loss.

St Louis used the timely hitting of Lawrence Butler to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Sluggers on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"Sandy gave us a heck of an effort," said St Louis manager John Hawkins.

With the win, St Louis has a record of 42-46. Carolina falls to 48-40.
