Polecats Get Hard-Earned Win
In a close game at Field of the Polecats, the Libertyville Polecats edged the Traverse City Bears, 5-4. Libertyville first baseman Josh Nation stood apart with his performance. He went 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Craig Treinen earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. He upped his record to 7-3. The losses continue to mount for Traverse City, which has now dropped 8 in a row.

The climactic moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Libertyville. That's when 23-year old third baseman Trent Liptak hit a run-scoring double off Alex de Jesus to win the game. The home crowd erupted in celebration.

"We certainly don't want to get used to losing," said losing manager Zach Hildebrant.
