Sherpas Ballpark was the site of an exciting ballgame between the Rice Puddings and West Virginia Sherpas.

The Rice Puddings bested the West Virginia Sherpas by a score of 7-6, with left fielder Wilbur Skinner getting the main credit. On the day, Skinner was 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for the Puddings. Drake Carter snagged the win in relief. The right-hander allowed 2 runs on 4 hits over 3 innings. He's now 3-4 on the season. Picking up the save was Gary Graham, his 14th.

Skinner had a game-changing home run in the top of the ninth. On a 1-0 fastball from Kevin Barker, he banged a solo home run to right, giving the Puddings a 7-6 lead. It was the 18th home run of the year for Skinner.

"I want us to get on a roll," said Skinner. "It'll happen when everyone's committed to the cause."

The Puddings sit in 4th place in the American Heartland Conference with a record of 33-23.
