Storm Clip Nutcrackers 4-3 in R1 Contest
The Wichita Storm have closed some of the gap between themselves and the series-leading Normal Nutcrackers, winning 4-3 at The Nutcracker Suite today. Storm right-hander Tony de la Cruz was named player of the game after he threw 7 innings of 6-hit ball. The win cuts the deficit facing the Storm to 3-2 in the best-of-7 League Championship Series.

Brad Mathews's hit in the top of the ninth was a game-changer. With two out, he rapped a fastball from Nick Clouse for a run-scoring single. It put Wichita in front, 4-3.

"I made some pitches when I had to," said de la Cruz.

Game 6 is set to be played Tuesday, September 19th, 2034 at The Storm Center. The scheduled starters for the game are Jack Mainjer for the Normal Nutcrackers and David Benitez for the the Wichita Storm.
