Bowling Green 9-5 Losers to Cubs
Chris Allen was a major contributor to the 9-5 South Bend win over Bowling Green. The Cubs center fielder was 3 for 4 with a double, 2 singles, and was hit 2 times. He scored 2 runs. Edgardo Castaneda notched the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 2.1 innings. His record now sits at 2-0. The 7th-place Cubs improved to 61-78.

South Bend used the clutch hitting of Artie Lee to capture the win. The designated hitter drilled a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to give the Cubs the lead, 7-5. For the game, Lee had 1 single and 1 double in 5 at-bats.

"Trying isn't good enough in this league," said Lee. "You've got to get results."
