Columbus Gets 12-9 Win
The 12-9 Columbus win over Kalamazoo was due largely to Steve Gottlieb. The Bowsers right fielder went 2 for 5 with a home run, while scoring 2 and driving in 5. Columbus is now 73-65, Kalamazoo 53-85.

In the top of the third, Gottlieb had a grand slam home run for Columbus. It was his 3rd home run of the season and put the Bowsers on top, 5-1.

"Crazy game," said Gottlieb after it ended.
