Wichert Powers Thoroughbreds to 15-13 Win
The Aiken Thoroughbreds beat the Media Luna Marlins in a game in which both teams scored early and often. The final score was 15-13, Thoroughbreds. One of the hitting stars was first baseman Malachi Wichert. Wichert, who is tied for 7th in the TLA with a .387 batting average, belted 2 home runs. He drove in 7 runs and scored twice. Aiken has now reeled off 6 straight wins.

With Aiken leading 11-10 in the top of the eighth, Wichert hit a knuckle curve from Danny Aguilar for a grand slam home run. It was his 19th home run of the season and put the Thoroughbreds ahead, 15-10.

"Ugly win or not, we'll take it," said Wichert.
