Good production from designated hitter Jonathan McElwain helped the Portland Mad Ants topple the Chesapeake Tailgators, 9-5. McElwain was 2 for 4 with a double and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the Mad Ants. The win went to Mike Glass in relief, making him now 2-1. Josh Harris took the loss for Chesapeake. The third-place Mad Ants have won 4 in a row.

Portland used a timely hit from Jimmy Olivares to get the win. The second baseman stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Mad Ants ahead, 7-5. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a difference-maker.

"The vibe's good," said Portland manager Will Berman. "We've got to keep it going."
