SPRINGDALE, Ark. (June 6, 2025)—Aaron Sabato hit his third home run of the week and recorded three RBIs in the 8-2 win for the Wichita Wind Surge over the Northwest Arkansas Naturals at Arvest Ballpark.

Wichita scored two runs in each of the first four innings on eight total hits, seven of which went for extra bases. Sabato swatted a two-run home run and an RBI double, Rubel Cespedes lined an RBI triple, and Noah Cardenas doubled in a pair over that stretch as the major knocks for the Wind Surge.

Javier Vaz got awarded home plate on a balk in the home half of the fourth. Carter Jensen singled to right for an RBI soon after to make the score 8-2 Wichita, and the scoreboard would not change the rest of the way.

Trent Baker took the win to even up his record at 2-2 this year. Baker threw his first quality start of the season with six innings of two-run baseball with four hits, a walk, and five strikeouts. Pierson Ohl followed with a three-inning save, giving up just two hits and a walk with four punch-outs out of the bullpen.
