Wells goes 3-for-4 to Ignite Emeralds Offense
The 11-7 Seattle win over Chicago was due in large part to Steve Wells. The Emeralds third baseman was 3 for 4 with 3 singles and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2. Tim McDonald picked up the win with 7.2 innings of work. He allowed 4 runs on 11 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 1. On the season, he is now 1-2. The Hawks fall to 9-17 and continue their sputtering start to the 1973 season.

Seattle used the hitting of Roberto Soto to pick up the win. The shortstop clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Emeralds on top, 3-0. For the game, Soto had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"I'm just looking to see the ball, hit the ball," said Wells.
