Royals Capture Close Win
The Chicago Gangsters and Cincinnati Royals provided some drama for the home crowd.

It took 13 innings, but the Cincinnati Royals were able to beat the Chicago Gangsters, 8-7, at The Hideout. Aaron Jalbert provided some offensive muscle for Cincinnati. He went 1-3 with a home run, 3 walks, and was hit by a pitch, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. The win was credited to 25-year old right-handed pitcher Jayson Wagner in relief. His record improves to 4-1. Nick Thompson took the loss. Dane Roberts was credited with the save, his 1st in 4 tries.

Cincinnati needed the clutch hitting of Rick Brown to seal the deal. The designated hitter swatted a solo home run in the top of the 13th inning to put the Royals on top, 8-7. For the game, Brown had 1 home run and 3 singles in 6 at-bats.

"Big win," said Brown.

The losing streak for Chicago has now reached 4 games.
