Bennett Leads Orange Sox to 14-7 Win Over Nutcrackers
The 14-7 Syracuse win over Normal was due in large part to Mike Bennett. The Orange Sox second baseman was 3-4 with a home run, 2 doubles, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 3 and driving in 3. The winning pitcher was 17-year old right-handed pitcher Ricardo Ramos. He tossed 106 pitches over 6.2 innings, allowing 4 runs on 9 hits. Syracuse now has a record of 47-33 with the win.

In the top of the first, Syracuse left fielder Jonathan Ransom had a run-producing at-bat. Facing Normal hurler Tony Bigio, Ransom drew a walk, driving in 1 run. That made the score 3-0, Syracuse. For the day, Ransom drew 1 walk.

"We came out aggressive," said Orange Sox manager Abdul Razzaq Kharoti. "We came out swinging the bats."
