Torres Helps Nutcrackers Win, 11-7, with Pair of Homers
The Normal Nutcrackers beat the Sedona Sabercats, 11-7, at The Lair at Sabercat Field. Orlando Torres went 2 for 4 with 2 home runs and was hit by a pitch, while adding 6 RBI and scoring twice. The 18-year old second baseman was a menace to Sedona all day. Jimmy Johnson nailed down the save. Normal goes to 2-4.

Normal used a clutch at-bat from Atsuhiro Sunada to capture the win. The designated hitter hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Nutcrackers ahead, 4-2. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Every time I go up there, I try and hit a ball hard," said Torres.
