Getting a good performance from first baseman Jesús Fernández, the Virginia Beach Whales defeated the Athletic Club KC Academy, 9-5. Fernández went 2-3 with a double and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs for the Whales. Virginia Beach has a record of 34-29, placing them 4th in the Premier AA.

Virginia Beach used a timely hit from Rick McCarthy to get the win. The pinch hitter stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Whales ahead, 7-5. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it made an impact.

"Good win for us," said McCarthy. "We'll lace up our cleats and go after the next one."
