Gestel Helps Billings Cruise to 12-3 Win
The Billings Polar Bears topped the Asheville Highlanders by the score of 12-3, with the largest share of the credit going to first baseman Shalom Gestel. Gestel was 2-4 with a home run and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 3 for the Polar Bears. Austin Cunningham got the win, improving to 3-6. He held the Highlanders to no earned runs on 4 hits over 5.2 innings, while striking out 1 and walking 3. The 4th-place Highlanders have lost 6 consecutive games.

Stanley Bell made an early impact for Billings when he stroked his 17th double of the season. The 2-run double, which came with two out in the bottom of the first, put the Polar Bears on top, 4-0.

"One win at a time, one game at a time. We try not to get too far ahead of ourselves," Gestel told the Billings Bulletin.
