Pandas Continue Hot Streak with Extra-Inning Win
The Montana Pandas did just enough to secure a 8-7 victory over the Chicago Hawks at Hawks Ballpark. Nobody did more than pitcher Javier López, who captured player of the game honors. Montana leads the Division III by 2 games.

Héctor Cortéz had the most critical at-bat for Montana, coming in the top of the 14th inning with two out and a runner on 2nd. Cortéz hit a full count curveball from Joe Crown for a run-scoring single. It put Montana in front, 8-7.

Cortéz told the Montana News: "The division is still up for grabs, but I like our chances."
