Bobcats Win, 6-3, Versus Ann Arbor
The home crowd had a good time watching the Ann Arbor Z's and Walnut Park Bobcats get after it.

The Walnut Park Bobcats weathered an outstanding game by Ann Arbor center fielder Tim Baggett to topple the Z's, 6-3. Baggett belted 2 home runs. The winner was Tommy Swift in relief. His record improves to 2-1. Jon Gunter took the loss. Getting the save was Sean Rosato, his 8th.

Ben Barbone, the 26th overall pick in the 2016 draft, took Ann Arbor hurler Jon Gunter deep in the bottom of the eighth. His 3-run home run put the Bobcats on top, 6-3. In all, Barbone had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 4.

"We took home the win," said Barbone. "What's not to like?"

The loss makes Ann Arbor 45-72.
