Dankenbring Excels, Franklin Levels Long Island
Paul Dankenbring was a major contributor to the 13-3 Franklin win over Long Island. The Cubs left fielder went 3 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 and driving in 4. Jim Unknown earned the win in relief. The right-hander allowed 2 runs on 3 hits in 4.1 innings. He upped his record to 1-0. At 24-20, the Cubs claim third place in the Northern Conference East Division.

Poul Binzer had a big 3-run home run for the Cubs in the bottom of the first inning. With Franklin leading 2-1 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a fastball from Katsutoshi Watanabe, who is tied for 7th in the NC in wins with 4, and punished it. The result was his 3rd home run of the season, which put the Cubs on top, 5-1.

"We hit the ball on the barrel," said Franklin manager Kerry McElree.
