Screaming Eagles Stick Thunder Hawks with 5-4 Loss
The Mercer Island Screaming Eagles did just enough to sneak past the Ft. Polk South Thunder Hawks, 5-4, at Mercer Island Grounds. Mercer Island pitcher Francisco Encarnación, in particular, had a standout performance. The Screaming Eagles lead the Premier AA by 7 games.

Mercer Island designated hitter Brian Neame contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the second. With two down, he hit a changeup into center field for a 2-run single. It was his 31st hit of the season and put the Screaming Eagles ahead, 3-0.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Mercer Island manager Ricardo Vargas. "It's usually not just one thing."
