North Kackalacky Packy Naughton threw 62⁄3 solid innings, striking out five and surrendering nary a walk. He gave up two unearned runs, but was otherwise pretty darned great. Slam a glass of Kool Aid, muh kid.
Cody “I gotta need, a need fer” Reed was, like most every Steven Spielberg film, spectacular aside from the very end. He threw 72⁄3 innings and struck out 11 while walking just one, the very last batter he faced. But the two runners he allowed in the eighth would come around to score and put this one out of reach for the Bats.
