Flying Squirrels Tag Naturals with 6-3 Loss
St. Petersburg second baseman David Spurlock was instrumental in helping the Flying Squirrels triumph, 6-3, over the Northwest Arkansas Naturals. Spurlock went 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks. The save went to Ryder Davies, number 12 for him. With the win over Northwest Arkansas, the Flying Squirrels improved to 51-50.

St. Petersburg used the timely hitting of Jon Hanton to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Flying Squirrels on top, 4-2. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I guess momentum is nice," said Flying Squirrels manager Flip Brooks, "but I don't believe in that stuff too much. You know we have to go play good baseball. We have to do what we do."
