The Yakima Hops and Akron Blimps played a tight game at Hops Park, with the hosts claiming the hard-fought win.

The Yakima Hops got a magnificent performance from pitcher Chris McDonald, who muffled the Akron offense en route to a tight 3-1 Hops win at Hops Park. Yakima reliever Charlie Hilder picked up the win, upping his record to 2-0. Wiley Washington shouldered the loss.

Rafael Bregonzi had a clutch at-bat with one out in the bottom of the seventh for the Hops. Coming up with the bases loaded and Yakima trailing 1-0, he hit a 2-run double.

"Chris is tough when he's hitting his spots," said Yakima manager Phillip Tinker.

Losses have been few and far between for the Blimps, who are now 12-4.
