Naturals Lick Cardinals, 4-2
Starting pitcher Joel Horton was a major factor in the 4-2 Northwest Arkansas Naturals triumph over the Springfield Cardinals. The Naturals, at 33-24, sit in second place in the North Division.

Making an impact for the home team was Josh Gearhart. In the bottom of the first, the 25-year old shortstop had a run-scoring walk. That made the score 2-0, Naturals.

"Being able to play a game for a living is one thing. Being able to play it well and contribute to a win is even better," Gearhart told the Northwest Arkansas Observer.
