Panthers Victorious at Tampa Bay, 7-4
The Carolina Panthers beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 7-4. Carolina pitcher and Brent, Florida, native Mike Rockwell led the way. The winning pitcher was Rockwell, now 1-0. He tossed 5 innings of 3-hit ball, while walking 5 and fanning 4. The win gives Carolina a record of 4-1.

Carolina used a well-timed hit by J.P. Jones to capture the win. The catcher socked a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Panthers ahead, 5-2. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"I went out and just tried to do my job," said Rockwell.
