Crawford Helps Polar Bears Run Win Streak to 4
A 3-RBI performance from second baseman Luke Crawford, who is tied for 3rd in the 3AA with a .429 on-base percentage, led the Billings Polar Bears to a 19-6 win over the Ottawa Nationals. Billings reliever Ryan Robertson picked up the win, bumping his record to 4-4. Manu Jortikka was collared with the loss. The Nationals have now dropped 8 straight.

The Nationals had been locked in a 6-6 tie with the Polar Bears going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the 24-year old right fielder Armando Ventura came to the plate. Ventura hit a 2-run single on a 3-1 fastball from Ottawa hurler Manu Jortikka. It was Ventura's 89th hit of the year.

"We maximized our offense today," said Billings skipper Ramón Rodríguez. "That makes everyone's life easier."
