Wildthings Stun Polecats, 3-1
In a low-scoring tilt between the Washington Wildthings and the Libertyville Polecats, 20-year old left-handed pitcher Ken Hicks was the difference-maker. The Washington left-hander spearheaded the 3-1 win. Washington reliever Nick Sullivan picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Brent Stedronsky was saddled with the loss. Washington, with the win, sits at 21-92.

Washington used the timely hitting of Jody Stack to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Wildthings on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I think every team will tell you that the pitching sets the tone, especially the starters," said Washington skipper Danny Sanchez.
