Mustangs Overwhelm Osprey, 15-6
Mustangs left fielder Wes Ward left his imprint on his team's 15-6 win over the Missoula Osprey. Ward was 4-6 with 3 doubles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 6 for Billings in the contest. Ken Baker got the win, improving to 5-2. He pitched 6 innings, giving up 8 hits and 4 runs, while striking out 7 and walking 5. Alain Prost got credit for the save for Billings. It was his 2nd of the year.

Billings used the hitting of Wes Carter to pick up the win. The center fielder clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Mustangs on top, 2-0. For the game, Carter had 1 home run and 2 singles in 3 at-bats.

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

The Mustangs, now 27-13, know that wins in August count the same as wins in September.
