Cubs Win Pitchers' Duel, 2-0, Versus Cougars
The South Bend Cubs downed the Kane County Cougars, 2-0, at Stanley Coveleski Regional Stadium. South Bend pitcher Marcus Kerklaan had a scintillating performance. With the win, South Bend raised its record to 15-14.

South Bend took a 1-0 lead on Phil Lind's 3rd home run of the season. The solo home run, which Lind hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Kane County pitcher Tom Schmitt visibly frustrated.

Lind called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."
