Bees Batter Cougars, 16-2
Claude Palma was a major factor in the 16-2 Burlington win over Kane County. The Bees third baseman was 4-6 with a home run and 3 singles. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2. Picking up the win was Juan Silva. He went 7.1 innings, allowing 2 runs on 5 hits. The right--hander struck out 4 and walked 2. The last-place Cougars have dropped 4 straight games.

Burlington used the hitting of Raúl Pérez to pick up the win. The right fielder clubbed a grand slam home run in the top of the third inning to put the Bees on top, 7-0. For the game, Pérez had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"I wish every win came this easy," said Palma.
