Memphis put together a strong all around performance that culminated in a win.  Springfield was dominated by a top pitching prospect and Allen Craig makes an appearance in a Palm Beach loss.  Finally, Quad Cities has an offensive explosion but Mr. Jenkins didn’t need much as he pitched the team to his first victory of the young season.
