Sosa Socks 2 Homers in 5-3 Win
The 5-3 Iowa City win over Newcastle was due in large part to Sammy Sosa. The Stalkers right fielder was 2-3 with 2 home runs and a walk. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2. Kris Abrams picked up the win, lifting his record to 7-6 on the season. He struck out 9 and walked 1 in 7.1 innings, while yielding 1 run. Picking up the save was Don Newcombe. He's now 18 for 22 in save chances.

With Iowa City leading 1-0 in the bottom of the third, Sosa hit a fastball from John Heesemans for a solo home run. It was his 3rd home run of the season and put the Stalkers ahead, 2-0.

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

The last-place House of Brews dropped to 35-57.
