Storm Chasers Topple Express, 10-4, as Howard Shines
Jake Howard was a major contributor to the 10-4 Omaha win over Round Rock. The Storm Chasers first baseman was 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 4 and driving in 2. Santiago Vasquez picked up the win with 7 innings of work. He allowed 4 runs on 11 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 3. On the season, he is now 1-1. Omaha has now won 5 straight, while the Express have lost 3 in a row.

The Express had been locked in a 4-4 tie with the Storm Chasers going into the top of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 24-year old second baseman Miguel Franco came to the plate. Franco hit a run-scoring double on a first pitch fastball from Round Rock hurler Jose Velazquez. It was Franco's 22nd double of the year.

Said Omaha manager Lorenzo Villatoro: "They come in every day and work hard. It's nice to see that work pay off."
