Loons Snatch Late Win
The Loons grabbed a win, 6-4, at Baby Thunder Dome, overcoming a fine effort from St. Petersburg pitcher Jorge Ortíz. Ortíz went 6 innings and allowed 2 runs. Michael Kilshaw, credited with the win, is now 1-0. He allowed no runs on no hits. Júlio Martínez earned the save for Minnesota, his 3rd of the year.

Minnesota used a clutch hit from Ju-ho Hwang to get the win. The pinch hitter drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Loons ahead, 6-4. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a doozy.

In comments to the Minnesota News, Hwang insisted that he's not as disinterested as it often appears. "Haters will hate," he added.

The Loons, now 9-3, have been on fire in the early going.
