FLORENCE, S.C.---Sharks newcomer Aaron Preston had a strong offensive night, going 2-3 with a double and a triple, but RedWolves starter Alex Kreis kept the rest of the Sharks bats relatively quiet as Florence beat Wilmington 5-1.  The RedWolves beat the Sharks 9-3 in the conclusion of a July 9 suspended game earlier in the night in a game that resumed in the sixth inning.

FLORENCE, S.C.---The Wilmington Sharks and Florence RedWolves picked up baseball in the sixth inning Saturday night in Florence, resuming a suspended game from July 9 with the score tied at 3-3.

WILMINGTON, N.C.--After a lengthy battle with the first place Morehead City Marlins (27-16, 11-3 CPL second half), a wild pitch by Sharks reliever Patrick Mincey (L, 1-3) in the 10th inning scored Joe Sclafani and gave the Marlins a 3-2 win over the Wilmington Sharks in 10 innings.
