Polecats Held in Check by Razor Sharks, Lose, 4-1
Eric Zane was nothing short of phenomenal for the Mesa Razor Sharks. The 25-year-old right-hander was a big reason his team beat the Libertyville Polecats, 4-1. Zane yielded 1 run over 5.2 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 1, and struck out 3. His record improves to 8-6. Josh Buxton earned the save, his 6th in 9 tries.

The Razor Sharks got a big at-bat from shortstop Mike Henschel. For the game, Henschel went 1 for 3 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the second, with runners on 1st and 2nd, he stroked a 3-run home run. His 17th home run of the season gave Mesa a 3-1 lead.

"Anything I can do to help the team win," said Henschel.

With the win over Libertyville, the Razor Sharks improved to 58-38.
