Chukwudi Excels, But Voodoo Win
The MSL New Orleans Voodoo withstood an impressive performance by MSL Colorado center fielder Ekene Chukwudi to defeat the Billy Goats, 9-5, at MSL New Orleans Ballpark. Chukwudi was 4-5 with a home run, a triple, and 2 singles. He scored 3 times and drove in 2. The winner in relief was Yan Hemminga. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 3.1 innings. He now owns a record of 1-0. The 4th-place Voodoo raised their record to 15-13.

The Billy Goats had been locked in a 3-3 tie with the Voodoo going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 17-year old shortstop Luis Tañón came to the plate. Tañón hit a solo home run on a 1-1 curveball from MSL Colorado hurler Mo Jones. It was Tañón's 5th home run of the year.

"We maximized our offense today," said MSL New Orleans skipper John Simpson. "That makes everyone's life easier."
