Cannon Ballers Send Greenville Home with 8-6 Loss
The Kannapolis Cannon Ballers weathered a fine game by Greenville left fielder Jim Sparger to upend the Drive, 8-6, at Atrium Health Ballpark. Sparger was 2 for 5 with a home run, while scoring 2 times and driving in 4. The Cannon Ballers saw their record improve to 60-45.

Ken Haase chipped in for Kannapolis, stroking a crucial run-scoring single in the bottom of the seventh inning. For the game, the right fielder went 1-3 with a walk, while scoring 2 times.

Haase said, "Whether you hit the ball hard, you walk, you have a long at-bat, 10 or 12 pitches, or you hit a homer, you're just trying to do anything you can do to help the team win."
