Fernandez Blasts Gremlins, Junebugs Take Game 4, 7-5
The Loachapoka Junebugs knotted up the Divisional Series at Loachapoka Camp Meeting today, thanks in large part to second baseman Luis Fernandez. Fernandez was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3 as he overpowered the Houghton Gremlins, enabling Loachapoka to grab the 7-5 win and move into a 2-2 tie in the best-of-7 series.

The game was all tied up in the bottom of the eighth, until Fernandez delivered big-time for Loachapoka, stroking a dramatic 2-run home run off Matt Cross. The game-changing hit put the Junebugs on top, 7-5.

"The team always comes first, so pulling out the win on a day like today is the most important thing," Fernandez told a reporter while responding to autograph requests. "Our fans like to come out to see a win, so I'm happy to do what I can to give them that."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Loachapoka Camp Meeting in Birmingham.
