Jet Hawks Deal Capitals 4-2 Loss
The Grand Rapids Jet Hawks defeated the Tampa Capitals, 4-2, at Capitals Ballpark. Grand Rapids was led by 24-year old right fielder Ben Porter, who went 2 for 4 with a home run, while scoring 2 times. Eunice Bamberg earned the save for Grand Rapids, his 1st of the year. So far, the 2025 season has been disappointing for Tampa, now 4-6.

The Jet Hawks got a big at-bat from right fielder Mike Coker. For the game, Coker was 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. In the top of the sixth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 4th home run of the season gave Grand Rapids a 2-0 lead.

In postgame remarks, Coker hailed his team's "single-minded determination."
