Libertyville Polecats (11-5) 1 0 3 1 5 0 0 0 X 10 12 0
With 10-8 Win, Polecats Go to 11-5
The Libertyville Polecats topped the Fresno Running Rebels by a score of 10-8. Leading the way was left fielder Tim Knight. Knight was 3-4 with 3 singles, while scoring 2 for the Polecats. Earning his 5th save for Libertyville was Will Olejnik. For the Running Rebels, the loss makes their record 6-10.

The Running Rebels had been locked in a 6-6 tie with the Polecats going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the 22-year old right fielder Aaron Rakers came to the plate. Rakers hit a 3-run home run on a first pitch fastball from Fresno hurler Dennis Gronewold. It was Rakers's 6th home run of the year.

"We've got some hairy guys on our side, too," said Libertyville manager Justin Thiede.
