Late Heroics Net Bats 3-2 Win
The Whitby Bats beat the Buffalo Bellflowers, 3-2, in 15 innings. Whitby pitcher and Mableton, Georgia, native Emre Voss led the way. The winning streak has now reached 4 games for the Bats.

The climactic moment came in the bottom of the 15th for Whitby. That's when John Austin, the 23rd overall pick in the 2024 draft, hit a solo home run off Jim Unknown to win the game. The home crowd erupted in celebration.

Voss called the win a testament to his team's "tenacity."
