Pivotal Game 5 Goes to Host Sidewinders, 8-3
The Tucson Sidewinders moved to within one game of the Regional Championship Series, downing the visiting New Orleans Baby Cakes at Greater Nevada Field by a score of 8-3. Sidewinders first baseman Ferdinand Pérez did some major damage. He was 3 for 4 with a double and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. The win gives the Sidewinders a 3-2 advantage in the best-of-7 Divisional Series.

Aitor Toribio had a clutch at-bat with no one out in the bottom of the sixth for the Sidewinders. Coming up with the bases loaded and Tucson trailing 3-2, he hit a grand slam home run.

"I really like what we did out there today," Pérez said after the game.

Game 6 is scheduled for Monday at Zephyr Field in New Orleans.
