Polar Bears Run Win Streak to 11
The winning streak continued for Billings.

The Billings Polar Bears did just enough to secure a victory over the Irving Blue Sox, 5-4, at The Igloo. Nobody did more than pitcher Lang Lian. Getting the save was Heath Hennington, his 7th.

The Polar Bears got an important contribution from first baseman Marcos Vargas, who in the bottom of the fourth hit a 2-0 fastball into right-center for a 3-run home run. It was his 3rd home run of the season and put the Polar Bears ahead, 3-1.

"There's a lot of good karma around our club," said winning manager Marvin Nelson.

Billings, now 12-2, is playing great baseball to start the year.
