Ann Arbor Beats Westwood, 6-2
The Ann Arbor Z's defeated the Westwood Bruins, 6-2. Left Fielder Paul Watson deserved a large share of the credit. Watson went 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the Z's. The 5th-place Z's are now 40-64, the Bruins 54-50.

Ann Arbor used a well-timed hit by Travis Letner to capture the win. The right fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the second inning to put the Z's ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"No complaints from me," said Z's manager Bryan Gallegos. "I like what I saw out there."
