Loons Drop Screaming Eagles, 5-4
The Minnesota Loons did just enough to secure a 5-4 victory over the Mercer Island Screaming Eagles at Mercer Island Grounds. Nobody did more than pitcher David Maxwell, who captured player of the game honors. In 5 innings, Maxwell surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 1. He allowed 2 runs. Getting the save was Ricardo Ramírez, his 2nd.

Djakapura Makanamaikai had a big 2-run single for the Loons in the top of the sixth inning. With Minnesota leading 3-2 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from Pavle Simic and stroked the single to left-center. It was his 5th hit of the season, and more importantly, it put the Loons ahead, 5-2.

"We put it together today and came out with the win," Makanamaikai said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."

With the loss, Mercer Island falls to 8-5.
