GAME HIGHLIGHTS
A bad start to interleague play for the top of the Frick opposes the very opposite for the top of the KML.
Scurvy travels to Motor City to take on the Madmen and gets held in check by Jose Berrios. The Madmen ace scatters eight hits and four walks, giving up only two runs in eight innings of work. A four run third inning, highlighted by Riley Greene's two run double, leads Motor City to the 4-2 win. Bako ace Gerrit Cole takes the mound in Ann Arbor, but the Bums offense is once again shut down, scratching together just five hits against Landlubber starter, Matt Manning. Ann Arbor takes game one, 3-1. Great (5-4 winners in Windy City) and Tucson (7-4 winners in Hawaiian Gardens) both capitalize and draw one game closer to the conference front runners.
Brooklyn's Jordan Montgomery pitches eight, three hit shutout innings against Grants Pass. The lone run in the 1-0 Kraken victory comes on a squeeze play in the bottom of the eighth inning. Gutsy call by the Kraken skipper that catches the Brewers off guard and keeps Brooklyn tied at the top of the conference with . . . Santa Ana welcomes Everest to town and walks off with a 4-3 win courtesy of JP Crawford's RBI single with two outs in the ninth. Brooklyn and Santa Ana remain atop the conference and tie Bako and Scurvy for the best record in the league. Staying two games back in the conference, Chicago coughs up a lead late but is rescued by JT Realmuto's game winning RBI single in the eighth inning.
