A 4-RBI performance from Melvin Castro, who is tied for 6th in the 3L in bases on balls with 42, helped the Chicago Gold Sox beat the Montana Pandas, 10-4. Chicago has now won 3 in a row.

With Chicago trailing 3-2 in the bottom of the fifth, Castro hit a fastball from Seung-hyeon So for a 3-run home run. It was his 21st home run of the season and put the Gold Sox ahead, 5-3.

"I'm proud of the way we took care of business and got the 'W' today," Castro told the Chicago News. "Whatever it takes."
