Bears Victorious at Rohnert Park, 7-2
The 7-2 Traverse City win over Rohnert Park was due largely to Tom Tofel. The Bears second baseman was 3 for 5 with a home run and a triple, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. The winning pitcher was Justin Knittle. His record now stands at 2-2. The right-hander went 6 innings, allowing 2 runs on 6 hits for the Bears. The Bears improved their record to 40-33 with the win over Rohnert Park.

Traverse City took a 3-2 lead on Tofel's 2nd home run of the season. The solo home run, which he hit off Joe Russell in the top of the sixth, propelled Traverse City to the win.

"I still think this team can play even better," Tofel told the Traverse City Citizen.
