Naturals Curb Hooks, 5-2
Northwest Arkansas pitcher Josh Tucker did his part in helping his team beat the Corpus Christi Hooks, 5-2. The left-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. Trystão Caparica wrapped it up, recording his 9th save. The third-place Naturals lifted their record to 40-43.

Had Kyle Croson delivered a key base hit in the top of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 3rd, Croson struck out. The score remained 4-2, Northwest Arkansas, and the Naturals were out of the jam.
