Herd Delivers Walk-Off Win for Jet Hawks
Fans of the Grand Rapids Jet Hawks who packed the stands for the home opener were rewarded with a Grand Rapids win over the visiting Huntsville Rockets, 7-6. Scott Barth started for the home team against Adam Williams. Curt Holy earned accolades for his performance. The winner was James Straughn in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Yekuno-Amlak Lusalah took the loss.

The climactic moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Grand Rapids. That's when 24-year old second baseman Caleb Herd hit a solo home run off Yekuno-Amlak Lusalah to win the game. The home crowd erupted in celebration.

"It's great when the crowd goes berserk," Herd said.
