Chris Carpenter retired 12 batters on strikeouts and Miguel Tejada touched
them all at Dodger Stadium as the Duluth-Superior Dukes beat the Meridian
Trojans 4 to 1.
 
Carpenter(8-11) pitched a solid game.  He allowed just 3 hits and 2 walks in 8
innings.  Overall Duluth-Superior out-hit Meridian 8 to 3.  
 
Rafael Soriano earned the save, his 21st.  Scott Baker(4-12) was charged with
the loss.  Mike Swanson was asked about the performance of Carpenter, 'He had
his good stuff out there tonight.  The fans really get into it when the
strikeouts start mounting up - and that seems to give him even more
adrenalin.'
