Vipers Drop Banana Nut Muffins, 7-2
Spirited fans greeted the Havana Banana Nut Muffins for their clash with the Mesa Vipers.

Robert Palmer left his imprint on the 7-2 Mesa win against the Havana Banana Nut Muffins. Palmer was 4 for 4 with 2 doubles and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs. Mesa starter Nick Alexander was credited with the win after throwing 112 pitches over 7 innings. His record now stands at 1-2.

Mesa relied on the hitting of Bill Yelland to pick up the win. The catcher clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Vipers on top, 6-2. For the game, Yelland had 1 home run and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

Palmer said his wife shared good advice with him before the game. "She said, 'Don't allow this game to make you mad.' When I thought about it, I realized this is just a game. I was able to relax at the plate."

The Vipers move to 10-12 with the win, while the Banana Nut Muffins drop to 8-14.
