Buckeye Local Downed, 5-3, by Killers
The Crystal Lake Killers defeated the Buckeye Local Panthers, 5-3, at Cincinnati Grounds. Crystal Lake was led by 18-year old left fielder Josh Franklin, who went 2 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk. The winner was Jordan Carreon in relief. His record improves to 4-1. Jim Unknown took the loss. The Crystal Lake win streak is now 3 games.

Crystal Lake used a timely hit from Chandler Duell to get the win. The center fielder stroked a 2-run double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Killers ahead, 5-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

Crystal Lake manager Josh Lewis called it "a pretty good win."
