Hepcats Trip Flamingos, 9-5, in Extra Innings
In the 9-5 Kansas City win over Florida, the impact of Bookie Metts was substantial. Metts, who is tied for 2nd in the MiLPBE in hits with 19, was 4 for 6 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. Kansas City now has a record of 6-4.

The Hepcats got an important contribution from designated hitter Joe Kirkland, who in the top of the tenth hit a curveball into right-center for a bases-clearing triple. It was his 1st triple of the season and put the Hepcats ahead, 8-5.

"It was a solid team effort and we'll try to keep this momentum going," Metts told reporters after the game.
