In a low-scoring tilt between the Minnesota Loons and the Yakima Hops, Cristián Álvarez was the difference-maker. The Minnesota right-hander earned player of the game honors in the 3-1 win. Álvarez got the win, improving to 4-7. He allowed 5 hits and walked 2 over 7 innings. Álvarez allowed 1 earned run. Minnesota is now 30-29, while Yakima is 29-30.

The outcome might have been different for Minnesota, had it not been for Yoshiki Ito, the 28-year old second baseman . Ito stroked a 2-run single in the top of the fifth inning to put Minnesota up, 3-1. For the game, he was 2 for 4, including 1 double and 1 single.

"At the end of the day, it's always about your starting pitcher," said Minnesota skipper Rafael Clemente.
