KALAMAZOO, Mich. - Three Washington pitchers combined on a four-hitter and Matt Sutton hit a home run as the Wild Things defeated Frontier League East Division-leading Kalamazoo, 4-1, Sunday at Homer Stryker Field.

Starting pitcher Brian McCullough (2-0) worked into the sixth inning for Washington and left with a 3-1 lead. Relievers Michael Lucas and Justin Edwards combined for four hitless innings to secure the win. Lucas worked out of a bases-loaded, one-out jam in the sixth. Edwards pitched the ninth inning for his second save.

Sutton gave Washington a 2-1 lead with an opposite-field solo homer in the top of the fifth off Kalamazoo starter Joe Dipietro (2-3). Ernie Banks contributed an RBI-double in the sixth and scored in the ninth on Alan Robbins' sacrifice fly. Banks had two of Washington's seven hits.
