The Libertyville Polecats defeated the Traverse City Bears, 4-2, at Greensboro Grounds today. Leading the charge for Libertyville was left fielder Eric Blanset.

The left-hander was charged with 1 run on 2 hits. Alpha Fields picked up the save for Libertyville, his 19th of the year.

With Libertyville leading 2-1 in the top of the fifth, Blanset hit a changeup from Francisco Macias for a 2-run home run. It was his 15th home run of the season and put the Polecats ahead, 4-1.

Traverse City manager Ray Johnson said he was "mildly disappointed" with the loss. "We had our opportunities, but we didn't take advantage of them," he said.
