Razor Sharks Make It 5 Straight with 4-3 Win
Behind a fine performance from Mike Hopkins, the Mesa Razor Sharks knocked off the Traverse City Bears, 4-3. Hopkins went 2 for 4 with a home run, while scoring 2 runs for the Razor Sharks. D.J. Attridge closed it out for his 1st save. Now 5-20, the 2023 Bears have played a subpar brand of baseball so far.

Chris Caruso, who is tied for 3rd in the E-AA with a .711 slugging percentage, chipped in a 2-run home run for Mesa in the bottom of the fourth. For the game, the catcher had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 RBI.

"Feels good to get the job done," Hopkins said after the game.
