Kalamazoo Drops Another One, 7-4
The Long Beach Keys weathered a fine game by Kalamazoo right fielder Chad Nilsen to upend the Comets, 7-4, at Long Beach Grounds. Nilsen went 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. The win went to Carlos Montenegro in relief. His record improves to 3-9. Jordan Santiago took the loss. Arturo Martinez collected his 2nd save.

The Comets had been locked in a 3-3 tie with the Keys going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 22-year old second baseman Justin Morgan came to the plate. Morgan hit a bases-clearing double on a 1-0 slider from Kalamazoo hurler Jordan Santiago. It was Morgan's 2nd double of the year.

"We need to keep playing good baseball," Morgan told the Long Beach Gazette.

The last-place Comets have lost 6 consecutive games.
