Polecats Victors, 11-2, at Traverse City
The Libertyville Polecats and starting pitcher Eddie Carver stifled the Traverse City offense en route to a comfortable 11-2 win at Greensboro Grounds. The Polecats now have a record of 38-81.

Jay Fowler went 1 for 4 with a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3 for Libertyville. The 27-year old shortstop had a key at-bat in the top of the second. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Kevin Gibbons. It was his 12th RBI of the season.

"You can't sugarcoat this one," said Traverse City manager Zach Hildebrant. "They smoked us."
