Chiefs Nip Cougars, 3-2
Peoria Chiefs starter Víctor Márquez turned in an exceptional performance against the Kane County Cougars at Dozer Park, resulting in a Peoria win, 3-2. The win went to Jim Sullivan in relief, making him now 3-1. Tom Schmitt took the loss for Kane County. The Chiefs now have a record of 42-43 with the win over Kane County.

The decisive blow was delivered by Sancho Vega in the bottom of the 16th when he hit a solo home run off 25-year old right-handed pitcher Tom Schmitt to win the game for Peoria. The home crowd went nuts.

"I like the grit of this ballclub," Vega said.
