Schultz Blasts 3 into Bleachers
Thursday, June 4th , 2026
Eric Schultz went the distance three times in the Libertyville-Washington tilt at Field of the Polecats, but the Polecats lost, 9-8.
"Gosh, it's a shame we didn't win this game," Schultz said later.
For the day, the Libertyville center fielder went 3-for-4 against Washington with 5 RBIs and 3 runs scored in a brilliant display of power hitting.
"I was in a groove and every pitch they tossed up there looked like a basketball," he said. "I tell you what, I was surprised because I didn't think the last ball had enough to get out. I thought it was just going to be a long out."
Eric Schultz hit a solo-shot off Felix Acosta in the 1st, grounded out in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 5th, walked in the 7th and hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 9th.
Schultz is hitting .206 this year with 7 home runs, 18 RBIs and 16 runs scored. He has 28 hits in 136 at-bats, 18 walks and a .301 on-base percentage. Schultz has played in 43 games.

Millionaires Cano Gone for Year
Wednesday, June 3rd , 2026
Roberto Cano of the Millionaires just might have to call it quits for the season. The 24-year-old Alcoa third baseman received a possible season-ending injury against the Encinitas Eskimo Brothers recently at EBDBBNB Park. Cano suffered a broken bone in the elbow while running the bases. The Millionaires medical staff said he could be out quite some time, as much as 5-6 months.
This season, Cano has hit 8 home runs and posted a .298 batting average.
