Omaha Wins, Meulens has 3 hit night
The Omaha Storm Chasers defeated the Idaho Falls Chukars, 7-4. Earning player of the game honors was third baseman Hensley Meulens, who was 3-4 with a home run and a double. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2. Tony J. Castillo, credited with the save, is now 23 for 24 in save opportunities. The Storm Chasers now have a record of 50-60.

Omaha took a 5-4 lead on Matt Mieske's 19th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Mieske hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Idaho Falls pitcher John Johnstone visibly frustrated.

"We put it together today and came out with the win," Meulens said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."
