Naturals Suffer One-Run Loss at Arkansas
Arkansas Travelers starter Marquise Ceresa turned in a sparkling performance against the Northwest Arkansas Naturals, leading his team to a 3-2 win. The winning pitcher was Ceresa, now 5-5. He tossed 7 innings of 4-hit ball, while walking 2 and fanning 4. Arkansas goes to 40-51, Northwest Arkansas to 44-47.

In the bottom of the fifth, Josh Armstrong delivered a clutch hit. With two gone and the bases loaded, the Arkansas designated hitter hit a run-scoring single, putting the Travelers in front, 3-2.

In comments to the Arkansas Citizen, Ceresa insisted that he's not as disinterested as it often appears. "Haters will hate," he added.
