Bruins Shut Out Caterpillars
The Bruins had to overcome a fine effort from Grand Forks pitcher Mick Alston to grab a 6-0 win at The Cocoon. Alston went 5.1 innings and allowed 3 earned runs. Bellevue reliever Jason Nixon picked up the win, upping his record to 1-1. Mick Alston absorbed the loss. The Bruins raised their record to 26-28.

A key at-bat in the game came in the top of the second inning when the Bruins sent teenager Jorge Ayala to the plate against Caterpillars hurler Mick Alston. With the bases loaded and a whole stadium watching, the kid controlled his nerves and delivered huge, hitting a single off a first pitch sinker to score 2.

"Glad to get this win," said Ayala. "But we need to keep playing at a high level."
