The Bangor Lumberjacks defeated the Kalamazoo Comets, 11-2. Second Baseman Cesar Mena deserved a large share of the credit. Mena was 3 for 5 with 3 singles and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Lumberjacks. Nolan Estes got the win, improving to 7-4. He pitched 5.2 innings, giving up 8 hits and 2 runs, while striking out 3 and walking 2. Their 56-51 record puts the Lumberjacks third in the Southern A East Division.

The Lumberjacks got a lift from center fielder Gilberto Cruzgonzalez, who in the top of the fifth stroked a first pitch fastball to center for a 2-run single. It was his 91st hit of the season and put the Lumberjacks ahead, 4-0.

"We can't expect to win," said Kalamazoo manager Morgan Van Dyke, "with that kind of performance."
