Memphis Decked by Bridgerton, Samurai
China Grove third baseman Anthony Bridgerton played a vital role in his team's 9-2 triumph over Memphis. He slugged 2 home runs, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 4 for China Grove. Chris Knop earned the win to go to 10-8. He allowed 2 runs on 7 hits, with no walks and 6 strikeouts in 6.2 innings of work. China Grove's record now stands at 58-69, placing them 5th in the Heartland League.

China Grove used the bat of Wes Morrison to get the win. The left fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Samurai ahead, 6-2. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Bridgerton.
