Grant Lifts Jet Hawks to 9-4 Win
Wet weather did not postpone the Grand Rapids-St. Catharines ballgame.

The Grand Rapids Jet Hawks polished off the St. Catharines Blue Jays by the score of 9-4. The largest share of the credit belonged to designated hitter Chad Grant. Grant was 3-3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 3 for the Jet Hawks. Matt Lavender, the winning pitcher, is now 2-1. He went 5.2 innings, allowing 4 runs on 10 hits, while fanning 7 and walking 5.

A key moment came with one out in the bottom of the third. That's when Grant hit a changeup from Kevin Massey for a 2-run single, putting Grand Rapids up, 6-4.

"I do my best to contribute," said Grant.

The win elevated the Jet Hawks to 30-18.
