The Northwest Arkansas Naturals got a magnificent performance from pitcher Ka-byong Pak, who muffled the Springfield offense en route to a tight, 2-1 Naturals win at Hammons Field. Chris Hardy closed out the game, earning his 3rd save. With the win, the Naturals hiked their record to 52-48.

Jon Rubin had a direct impact on the outcome. Rubin contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the second inning to put Northwest Arkansas up, 2-0.

"We believe in ourselves and we're willing to work hard. It's a good combination," Rubin told the Northwest Arkansas Daily News.
