Caterpillars Come Back Late to Clip Hawks
The Grand Forks Caterpillars defeated the Highwood Hawks, 4-3, in M3L Single A action at Hawks Field, with Grand Forks pitcher Artie Best named player of the game. Jim Unknown closed the game out for Grand Forks, earning his 1st save. The Caterpillars saw their record improve to 20-21.

A key at-bat in the game came in the top of the ninth inning when the Caterpillars sent teenager Víctor Fortis to the plate against Hawks hurler Vicente García. With a runner on 1st and a whole stadium watching, the kid controlled his nerves and delivered huge, hitting a home run off a full count fastball to score 2.

"I really like what we did out there today," Fortis said after the game.
