Chesapeake Loses, 5-2, to Baxter Springs in 12
Chesapeake got a big-time effort from pitcher Alex Martinez, but it wasn't enough to keep the Baxter Springs Marshals from winning the game, 5-2. Martinez threw 7.2 innings of 6-hit ball for the losing team. The win was credited to Gordie Clifford in relief. His record improves to 1-1. Rick Gregg took the loss. By defeating Chesapeake, the second-place Marshals improved to 28-13.

Baxter Springs got a knockout punch from Matt Bellavance. The catcher hammered a 3-run home run in the bottom of the 12th inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"Walking a team off at the end -- there's no greater feeling," said Bellavance.
