Selects Fall Short, 6-5, at Ann Arbor
Tony Robinson was a major contributor to the 6-5 Ann Arbor win over Spokane. The Z's second baseman was 3-4 with 2 doubles. He scored 2 runs. The win has Ann Arbor at 56-87.

Ann Arbor took a 6-5 lead on Nick Rucker's 14th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Rucker hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Spokane pitcher Dan Dean visibly frustrated.

"We put a lot of pressure on ourselves," Rucker told a Ann Arbor Times reporter. "Sometimes we just need to relax."
