Andrew Carpenter took the hill for the Threshers on Saturday night looking for his fifth consecutive win and his 14th win of the year. Jeremy Slayden was there to help him out with a triple and a run in the second inning to be followed by a home run in the fourth to give the team a 2-0 lead.

Unfortunatley the rest of the Threshers bat were held silent by the Yankees pitchers, and when Andrew Carpenter was pulled in favor of reliever RJ Swindle the Yankees grabbed four runs in the ninth to down the Threshers for the third consecutive game and jumped in front of the Threshers by 4.5 games.



Player in yellow denotes the SCHMIDT List player(s) of the game.
