Big Day by Espantoso Sparks Loons Win
A nice crowd turned out to see the Minnesota Loons and Durham Rapiers clash at Rapiers Ballpark.

Benefiting from Germán Espantoso's productive game, the Minnesota Loons downed the Durham Rapiers, 10-4. Espantoso went 3 for 5 with a double and 2 singles, while scoring 4 runs and driving in 3 for the Loons. Horatio McAllister earned the save, his 1st.

With Minnesota leading 1-0 in the top of the second, Espantoso hit a fastball from Archie Erickson for a bases-clearing double. It was his 8th double of the season and put the Loons ahead, 4-0.

"We'll pop the top on a cold one and get back to work tomorrow," Espantoso said.

Minnesota is now 46-36, Durham 39-43.
