Dread Kings Capture 8-2 Win at Field of the Polecats
The Boise Dread Kings stopped the Libertyville Polecats, 8-2, behind an impressive performance from Joe Cross. The 28-year old second baseman made life miserable for Libertyville pitching. He was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Reynaldo Beltran recorded the save. In save chances, he's now 17 for 20. The win hiked the Boise record to 48-43.

Boise used the hitting of Chris Goldsmith to pick up the win. The first baseman clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Dread Kings on top, 5-2. For the game, Goldsmith had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

Goldsmith said his team "played with focus."
