Polecats Improve to 14-5 with 6-2 Win
The Libertyville Polecats took on the Traverse City Bears at Greensboro Grounds.

Libertyville pitcher Ruben Moralez had a large part in his team subduing the Traverse City Bears, 6-2. The opposition could never mount much of a rally against the right-hander. The Polecats, now 14-5, have played some good baseball in the early going.

Libertyville used the timely hitting of Frank Vigil to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Polecats on top, 3-1. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We did a lot of things right," said Moralez.
