Comets Earn 4-3 Win Versus Aztecs
The Kalamazoo Comets took Mexico City pitcher Brian Anderson's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Wizards Stadium. The final score had Kalamazoo getting past the Aztecs, 4-3. Anderson went 7 innings and allowed 3 runs, striking out 8. Kalamazoo reliever Jim Unknown picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Hunter Saakadze took the loss. The Comets win now puts them at 23-36.

Kalamazoo took a 4-3 lead on David Shein's 2nd triple of the season. The 2-run triple, which Shein hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Mexico City pitcher Hunter Saakadze visibly frustrated.

"We played a good game and came out on top," said Shein.
