Libertyville Defeats Washington, 4-2
Jim Unknown had a strong outing for the Libertyville Polecats against the Washington Wildthings at Red Barons Ballpark. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 4-2 win. Unknown got the win, improving to 1-0. He gave up 1 hit and walked 0 over 5 innings. He allowed 1 run. The Polecats improved their record to 17-26 by beating Washington.

Libertyville used a clutch hit from Mike Horstman to get the win. The right fielder drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Polecats ahead, 4-2. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a doozy.

"I know we have our doubters," said Washington manager Danny Sanchez. "But I still have high hopes for this team."
