Springfield Topples Arkansas, 5-2
The Springfield Cardinals topped the Arkansas Travelers, 5-2, in Texas League action at Hammons Field. The standout performance belonged to Springfield pitcher and Fukuoka, Japan, native Tsuneo Tanada. Tanada, now 7-3, was the winner. In 7.2 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 4, walking 1, and allowing 2 runs. The second-place Cardinals go to 69-56.

The Cardinals got a big at-bat from center fielder Ben Selle. For the game, Selle was 2 for 4 with a double, while adding 2 RBI. In the bottom of the sixth, with runners on 1st and 2nd, he stroked a 2-run double. His 19th double of the season gave Springfield a 2-0 lead.

Selle attributed the win to his team's "dogged determination."
