Smokies Clip Caterpillars in Tight Contest
The Tennessee Smokies did just enough to sneak past the Grand Forks Caterpillars, 3-2, at Smokies Stadium. Tennessee pitcher Carlos Cabael earned player of the game honors. Karisnu Raghunathan got credit for the win, improving to 6-3. He allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. With the win, the Smokies have a record of 44-46.

Had Steve Marwat not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 3rd, Marwat hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Smokies.

In postgame comments to the Tennessee Today, Cabael said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
