Polecats Suffer 9-4 Setback
The Mesa Razor Sharks defeated the Libertyville Polecats, 9-4, in Eastern AA action at Field of the Polecats. Mesa pitcher Heriberto Hernandez had a standout performance. The winning streak has now reached 4 games for the Razor Sharks.

The game was at a stalemate until designated hitter Isaac Williams came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Libertyville pitcher Will Bonorden, he hit a 1-2 fastball for a 2-run single. It was a game-changer, putting Mesa on top, 6-4.

"Heriberto throwing strikes, pounding the zone, that is exactly what you want to see," said Mesa manager Danny Schexnayder.
