Kernels Top LumberKings to Even Record
The Cedar Rapids Kernels defeated the Clinton LumberKings by the score of 3-1, with the biggest share of the credit going to right fielder Kevin Easter. Easter went 3-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 runs for the Kernels on the day. Joe Donnelly, the winning pitcher, improved to 6-6. He pitched 5.1 innings, giving up 5 hits and no runs, while striking out 3 and walking 2. Kevin Hair was called on to finish, recording his 11th save.

Cedar Rapids used the timely hitting of Steve Richardson to capture the win. The pinch hitter stroked a 2-run double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Kernels on top, 3-0. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but he made it count.

Easter called the win a testament to his team's "grit."

The victory gives Cedar Rapids a record of 56-56.
