Godfathers Prevail, 5-3, Over Grand Forks
The Pontiac Godfathers picked up a win at Pontiac Copperdome, taking down the Grand Forks Caterpillars, 5-3. Starting pitcher Dale Bailey was a big reason why. Bailey, now 6-9, was the winner. In 7.1 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 8, walking 3, and allowing 2 runs. The 6th-place Caterpillars have lost 4 straight games.

Early in the game, designated hitter Keith Finley had a 3-run home run for Pontiac. It was his 6th home run of the season and put the Godfathers on top, 3-0.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Bailey.
