Thrashers Win at Home, 3-1
The Haviland Thrashers, behind a great outing from Rafael Cruz, who leads the SC in strikeouts with 71, defeated the Picture Rocks Raptors, 3-1, at Ballpark of Haviland. The winner was Cruz. He threw 5.1 innings of 4-hit ball. The loser was Shigeru Nakamura. Earning his 9th save of the year was Edgar Ambrosio.

Haviland took a 3-1 lead on Jim Graves's 7th triple of the season. The run-scoring triple, which Graves hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Picture Rocks pitcher Jim Unknown visibly frustrated.

Graves attributed the win to "an all-around good team performance."

The loss makes Picture Rocks 17-33.
