Seoul Wins, 8-5, Behind 2 Kirkpatrick Home Runs
The Seoul Crushers topped the Medicine Hat Drillers, 8-5, with left fielder Kevin Kirkpatrick playing a big role. Kirkpatrick slugged 2 home runs, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3 for the Crushers in the win. Takanibu Takano was the winner. He's now 2-0. The loser was 26-year old right-handed pitcher Luther González. Barney Swanson closed it out for Seoul, earning his 2nd save.

The game turned with no one out in the bottom of the fourth when Kirkpatrick hit a solo home run. It thrust the Crushers into the lead, 3-2.

"We maximized our offense today," said Seoul skipper Lúcio Medina. "That makes everyone's life easier."

The Drillers fall to 5-8 and continue their sputtering start to the 2042 season.
