Texas Vipers starter Mike Soroka found his groove in his team's 7-3 win over the Tampa Bay Bandits. After today's action, Texas sits at 58-71, while Tampa Bay falls to 84-45.

In the bottom of the second, Texas right fielder Sam Hilliard had a productive at-bat. With the bases loaded and no one out, Hilliard stroked a 2-run single to right. It made the score 3-0, Texas. For the game, he was 2 for 4 with 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Hilliard said.
