Beach Bums 3, Evansville 1

The Beach Bums were able to get the best of Evansville without swinging the bats much on a cool evening at Wuerfel Park...The pitching staff was outstanding...Kevin Reese threw five innings to get the win, Shawn Joy retired all nine batters in three innings of work including four strikeouts, and Jeff Williams recorded the save by working the ninth...
