Polar Bears Fall Short, 7-6, at Ithaca
The Ithaca Fighting Imps beat the Billings Polar Bears by a score of 7-6. Ithaca right fielder Paul Brown deserved the lion's share of the credit. Brown was 3-5 with a double and 2 singles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the Fighting Imps. Larry Crowder earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed 2 runs on 5 hits in 2.2 innings. His record is now 2-0. Ithaca is now 16-18, while Billings is 18-16.

In the bottom of the sixth, Ithaca shortstop Jeffrey Sparks put his team on top. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he hit his 10th double of the year. Billings pitcher Jesús Gamboa served it up. Just like that, the Fighting Imps were ahead, 5-4.

"It wasn't a pretty victory," said Brown, "but we got it done."
