The Libertyville Polecats knocked off the Riverside Rotters, 4-3, at Rotters Ballpark. Eric Kraft was a big reason Libertyville won. The designated hitter was 3 for 3 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Harley Towle picked up the win in relief. His record improves to 3-5. Abel Viar suffered the loss. The third-place Polecats sport a record of 34-32.

Libertyville needed the clutch hitting of Tim Knight to seal the deal. The left fielder swatted a solo home run in the top of the 13th inning to put the Polecats on top, 4-3. For the game, Knight had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Knight.
