Polar Bears Topple Shooters with Late Rally
The Springfield Shooters wasted an inspired, 7.2-inning effort from starter Victor de Meij, falling 2-1 to the Billings Polar Bears at The Igloo. The Shooters, at 41-30, have lost 5 in a row.

In the bottom of the 8th, right fielder Roberto Hernández gave Billings the lead when he hit a 2-run triple. The Polar Bears had been trailing 1-0, but the two-out triple off Springfield pitcher Jim Unknown changed that -- and Billings went on to win.

"This level of focus will win us a lot of ballgames," Hernández said after the game.
