Running Rebels Win Hitfest, 12-10
Fresno and Traverse City engaged in a slugfest.

The timely hitting of Kyle Benson helped the Fresno Running Rebels down the Traverse City Bears, 12-10. Benson was 2-5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 4 for the Running Rebels. Jim Unknown got the save, the 1st for him this season.

Fresno took a 10-6 lead on Benson's 24th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which he hit off Emilio Ampuero in the bottom of the seventh, propelled Fresno to the win.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Benson said.

The Running Rebels are now 45-82, while the Bears fall to 64-63.
