Suns Collect 10-4 Win Over Bears
Aurora right fielder Eric Barrett collected 3 ribbies while his team bumped off the Traverse City Bears, 10-4, in 11 innings. The Suns move to 21-15 with the win, while the Bears drop to 6-30.

Aurora used a clutch hit from Willie Trevino to get the win. The third baseman drilled a grand slam home run in the top of the 11th inning to put the Suns ahead, 7-3. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We hit the ball hard," said Aurora manager Oscar Figeroa. "Line drive after line drive."
