Win Goes to Naturals in Tight Contest
At Arvest Ballpark, the Midland RockHounds and Northwest Arkansas Naturals were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd.

The Northwest Arkansas Naturals racked up a win at Arvest Ballpark, bumping off the Midland RockHounds, 4-2. Cesar Ramos, who started for Northwest Arkansas, pitched effectively for his team. Northwest Arkansas reliever David Thibeaux picked up the win to move to 5-4. Sergio Contreraz suffered the loss.

Northwest Arkansas took a 4-2 lead on Luke Wilson's 6th double of the season. The 2-run double, which Wilson hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Midland pitcher Sergio Contreraz visibly frustrated.

"Winning never gets dull," said Wilson.

Northwest Arkansas is now 39-38, while Midland is 29-48.
