WICHITA, Kan. - Kala'i Rosario tied the franchise single-season record by hitting his 24th home run of the season in a 6-3 victory for the Wichita Wind Surge over the Arkansas Travelers at Equity Bank Park.

Rosario swatted a high-arcing home run onto the left field berm in the home half of the sixth to tie the game. Ben Ross put Wichita back in front with a 5-3 lead on a two-RBI double near the left field line. Baez worked a bases-loaded walk after the stretch in the seventh to make it a three-run game.

Mike Paredes shut down the Travelers with four strikeouts over the final two innings for a 6-3 Wind Surge victory and his fifth save of the season.
