Big Day by Thomas Ignites Caterpillars Win
The Grand Forks Caterpillars relied on the hitting of left fielder Wilbur Thomas to stop the Mt. Vernon Bulls, 11-4. For the game, Thomas went 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. Peer Aarsen earned the win to go to 5-5. He allowed 2 earned runs on 3 hits, with 2 walks and 5 strikeouts. Mt. Vernon, at 51-39, has lost 6 straight.

Thomas contributed a big hit, a grand slam home run, for Grand Forks in the top of the second. With his team trailing 2-0, Thomas took a fastball from Patrick Ibáñez and stroked the home run to left. His 3rd home run of the season allowed the Caterpillars to leap in front, 4-2.

"I was able to barrel up some pitches," said Thomas.
