Lansing Beats Fort Wayne, 5-1
The Lansing Lugnuts got a good effort from starter Steve Collins in defeating the Fort Wayne TinCaps at Cooley Law School Stadium. The final score was 5-1. Lansing has now won 3 in a row.

Mike Nicholas had a big 3-run home run for the Lugnuts in the bottom of the third inning. With Lansing leading 1-0 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he sized up a changeup from 24-year old right-handed pitcher Dan Norman and punished it. The result was his 10th home run of the season, which put the Lugnuts on top, 4-0.

"Steve gave us everything he had," said Lansing manager Edgar Varela.
