Norfolk Wins, 3-2, Over Thunderbirds
Norfolk pitcher Juan Velasco had a large part in his team beating the Hamilton Thunderbirds, 3-2. The left-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. Norfolk has an impressive 73-24 record.

The game-ending blow was delivered by Will Marshall in the bottom of the ninth. That's when he hit a run-scoring double off former first round draft pick Wilbert Irwin to win it for Norfolk and cause the home crowd to erupt in celebration.

"This place sure got loud," said Vincent Cruz, the Norfolk manager.
