Bears Overcome Great Performance by Henschel in Win
The Mesa Razor Sharks got a superb performance from shortstop Mike Henschel, but the Traverse City Bears still won the game, 15-12. Henschel went 3-5 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 4. Jim Unknown was the winner in relief. His record is now 1-0. The losing pitcher was Victor Benavidez. Mesa, with the loss, is still a hardy 16-7.

Traverse City used the clutch hitting of Graham Clayton to snag the win. The pinch hitter drilled a grand slam home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Bears ahead, 13-12. It was his lone hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a crucial one.

"It's the best feeling when you come through for your teammates," said Clayton.
