Action Around the FLB: July 5

Wisconsin gets over the hump, defeating Quad City to earn the Randalls their first victory of the season and the first for franchise since their move to the Upper Midwest. Elsewhere, by the narrowest of margins Washington remains winless, falling to the undefeated Bombers 8-7. Portland also remains undefeated, taking down the Swamp Foxes. In a pair of highly entertaining, critical early season series New Orleans took the lead over Omaha and the Tikis shutdown Winnipeg it what was a pitcher's duel.
