Big Day for Palmer in 7-1 Screaming Eagles Win
The exploits of third baseman Brian Palmer helped the Mercer Island Screaming Eagles defeat the Minnesota Loons, 7-1. Palmer was 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Morgan Cartier, the winning pitcher, improved to 1-0. He pitched 5 innings, giving up 5 hits and 1 run, while striking out 7 and walking 2. Mercer Island has a record of 6-4.

The Screaming Eagles got an important contribution from shortstop Noel Higgins, who in the bottom of the fifth hit a 2-1 fastball into left-center for a run-scoring double. It was his 4th double of the season and put the Screaming Eagles ahead, 2-0.

When asked about his performance after the game, Palmer said: "Like everyone else, I'm just doing my job."
