Wichita Wind Surge News Release


WICHITA, Kan.-The Wichita Wind Surge fell 3-2 on an error against the Northwest Arkansas Naturals at Riverfront Stadium. The defeat puts Wichita at 7-16 in one-run games this season.

Northwest Arkansas brought in scores their first two times to the plate on a Rodolfo Durán sacrifice fly to left in the first and a River Town RBI single laced to the same area of the outfield in the second.

Jeferson Morales guided a single down the first base line to score Luke Keaschall from second in the bottom of the third inning. Although Jake Rucker was tagged out at home on a sacrifice fly to end the frame, Ben Ross tied things up on a double to left field an inning later in the last of the fourth.

Neither team would put a man across again until the top of the eighth when Peyton Wilson crossed the plate on an infield error to make it a 3-2 Naturals lead. Carson McCusker reached on a single to shallow left-center to lead off the bottom of the ninth, but Northwest Arkansas turned two on a game-ending 4-6-3 twin killing to jump to 4-1 in the second half.

Taylor Floyd earned his first decision of the season, a loss, after giving up an unearned run on a hit and a walk with four strikeouts in two innings.
