Trash Pandas Beat Visiting Naturals, 5-2
Wet weather did not postpone the Rocket City-Northwest Arkansas ballgame.

Rocket City turned a good effort from starter Elijah Shipley into a win over the Northwest Arkansas Naturals at Hank Aaron Stadium. The final score was 5-2. The winner was Shipley. He threw 6.0 innings allowing 1 run. The loser was Julian Joseph. Wes Gilmore nailed down his 14th save.

Rocket City designated hitter Grover Harris contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the third. With two down, he hit a fastball to left-center field for a 2-run single. It was his 79th hit of the season and put the Trash Pandas ahead, 3-0.

"Winning is hard sometimes," said Trash Pandas manager Alex Salcedo. "This one was nice to get."

The last-place Naturals have dropped 4 straight games.
