Unknown had a game-changing home run in the top of the sixth. On a 3-1 cutter from Harold Taylor, he banged a solo home run to left-center, giving the Battlekings a 2-1 lead. It was the 2nd home run of the year for Unknown.

"Some of the guys in here work pretty hard, some of the guys just kind of fall out of bed and get it done. Whatever works I guess, we won this one," Unknown told the Naperville Herald.
