Midland Triumphs with Late Surge
The Midland RockHounds beat the Springfield Cardinals, 4-2. Midland pitcher and Plaquemine, Louisiana, native Josh Ambro led the way. The RockHounds sit in second place in the South Division with a record of 56-57.

The climactic moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Midland. That's when 25-year old shortstop Marcos Cruz hit a 3-run home run off Terry Redden to win the game. The home crowd erupted in celebration.

"You come to the ballpark to do your job and that's what I did today," Cruz told the Midland Chronicle.
