Northwest Arkansas Loses, 10-8, in 11
Northwest Arkansas catcher Jamie Hall had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 10-8, to Springfield in 11 innings. Hall was 3 for 5 with a double and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Jose Linares, 6-3, earned the win in relief. He allowed 2 runs on 2 hits in 2 innings. At 69-60, the Cardinals find themselves in third place in the North Division.

Springfield got a clutch hit from Carlos Rivera. The third baseman launched a 3-run home run in the bottom of the 11th inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 6 at-bats, but it was a kill shot.

"The name of the game is scoring runs," Rivera said. "We did a good job of that today."
