David Buchanan tossed 6 strong innings, winning his 2nd game for the Threshers as Clearwater defeated the Flying Tigers, 7-1 in Lakeland Sunday. Buchanan (2-1 for Clearwater, 13-6 overall) allowed just 1 run on 7 hits and 1 walk, striking out five in the process. David has been very good all year, walking just 38 hitters in over 148 innings pitched. Eric Pettis, Andy Loomis and Juan Sosa each threw a shut out inning. Red hot Brandon Tripp (.340) had 3 more hits, including 2 doubles and 2 RBI. (He is just too good for that league-move 'em up!). Cyle Hankerd and Cesar Hernandez also had 3 hits each.
The Threshers are in 3rd place, trailing fist place Dunedin by 3.5, and 2nd place Tampa by 2 games, with 14 games to play. Clearwater plays Dunedin in the final 4 games.
