Jesters Win, 3-2
Starting pitcher Steve Cates took care of business, helping the Joilet Jesters stifle the Montreal Royals, 3-2. Cates yielded 2 runs over 7.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 4 hits, walked 2, and struck out 10. His record improves to 9-7. Joilet, at 67-50, is 3½ games up in the Stars Conference East Division.

Joilet used a clutch at-bat from Jody Jackson to capture the win. The designated hitter hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Jesters ahead, 2-0. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Our guys are never satisfied," said Joilet manager Felipe Arriaga.
