Victory Over Gold Sox Takes Montana to 68-40
Rod Jones had a good game, but he could not keep the Chicago Gold Sox from falling, 4-3, to the Montana Pandas at Panda Park. The Chicago shortstop was 2 for 3 with 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs in the loss. The first-place Pandas, at 68-40, now lead their division by 3 games.

South Huntington, New York-born Jake Richardson came through in the clutch. In the bottom of the fifth, with the bases loaded and the Pandas trailing 3-2, he hit a 2-run single to left to put Montana on top.

"Good pitching, clutch hitting," said Montana skipper Andrew Schupick. "I can't complain."
