Naturals Pull Out Late-Game Win, 8-7
The Northwest Arkansas Naturals beat the Springfield Cardinals, 8-7, in 10 innings at Arvest Ballpark. Northwest Arkansas shortstop Steve bin Hakem had an outstanding performance. He was 4 for 5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The win belonged to Juan Montés in relief. His record improves to 2-0. José Jaramillo took the loss for Springfield. With the win, the Naturals have a record of 57-49.

Up to bat in the bottom of the tenth, former first round draft pick Ramão La Arena had a chance to be the hero. Springfield pitcher José Jaramillo wanted to foil that plan. But with one out, La Arena hit a sacrifice fly. The Naturals had themselves a thrilling win.

"Exciting game to play in," said La Arena. "Getting the win makes it even better."
