Sharks’ 14 hits propel Wilmington over Florence

The win keeps Wilmington in a tie for first place in the CPL East
WILMINGTON, N.C. (WWAY) – Friday was WWAY Night at the Shark Tank. Chief Meteorologist Lee Haywood was reporting weather from the ball park, but it was the Wilmington boys of summer who produced some thunder at the plate.
The Sharks collected 14 hits in a win over the Florence Flamingos, final score 7-3. Eight different Wilmington players recorded a hit.
The team will be back at Buck Hardee field Saturday, taking on the Briarcliffe Seagulls.
Always great to catch up with @RussBurroughs to talk some @ILMSharks baseball!
