Blimps Topple Hops, 12-6
The Akron Blimps grabbed a 12-6 win over the Yakima Hops at Hops Park. Akron third baseman Dale Epner went 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3 to earn player of the game honors. At 49-24, the Blimps have a slim two-game lead in the Silver AA.

The outcome might have been different for Akron, had it not been for Lauren Hilfiker, the 23-year old first baseman . Hilfiker stroked a 2-run single in the top of the fifth inning to put Akron up, 3-2. For the game, he was 3 for 4, including 1 double and 2 singles.

"We swung the bats good throughout the lineup," said Akron skipper Emílio Sáenz.
