Dawson Stars in 11-10 Bears Win
The Traverse City Bears did just enough to sneak past the Libertyville Polecats, 11-10, at Greensboro Grounds. Traverse City center fielder Scott Dawson, in particular, had a standout performance. Traverse City starter Pat Potter was credited with the win after throwing 94 pitches over 5 innings. His record now stands at 2-2. Despite the win, Traverse City, now 5-15, is off to a terrible start.

Dawson contributed in the bottom of the third. With runners on 1st and 3rd, he hit a run-scoring single. It was one at-bat among others that helped Traverse City get the win.

"Just glad I could help us get a win," said Dawson.
