The Twin Cities Northmen beat the Chicago Hawks, 5-2. Twin Cities pitcher and Pasadena, California, native Gerald Gross led the way. Twin Cities has won 3 straight, while Chicago has lost 8 in a row.

Twin Cities catcher Rick Giardina contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the first. With two down, he hit a sinker to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 56th hit of the season and put the Northmen ahead, 2-0.

"We're trending in the wrong direction," said Chicago manager Mike Flaherty.
