Both teams had their chances, but the Kalamazoo Comets eventually prevailed.

The Kalamazoo Comets turned back the Mexico City Aztecs, 7-6, at Tony Gwynn Stadium. Max Benitez, in particular, had a fine performance. He hit 2 home runs, while adding 5 RBI and scoring twice. Jim Unknown got credit for the win, improving to 1-0. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 3.1 innings.

Benitez made an early impact for Kalamazoo when he stroked his 6th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which came in the top of the second, put the Comets on top, 5-1.

"I hate to be the fly in the ointment," said Benitez, "but we could've played better."

With the win, Kalamazoo lifts its record to 11-14.
