Northwest Arkansas Gets 6-4 Win Versus Tulsa in 10
The rain came, as predicted, but the Northwest Arkansas Naturals and Tulsa Drillers were able to complete their ballgame.

The Northwest Arkansas Naturals stopped the Tulsa Drillers, 6-4, at ONEOK Field. The Naturals got a big game from Brian Pyle, who went 3-5 with a double and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs. Miguel Alfaro, credited with the save, is now 2 for 2 in save opportunities.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Brendon McOwen? The 26-year old center fielder McOwen stroked a 2-run single in the top of the tenth inning to put Northwest Arkansas up, 6-4. For the game, he was 2 for 2, including 1 double and 1 single.

"Every time I go up there, I try and hit a ball hard," said Pyle.

The Northwest Arkansas win streak is now 4 games.
