Loons Top Screaming Eagles, 3-1
The Minnesota Loons and Mercer Island Screaming Eagles played a tight game with the hosts claiming a hard-fought win.

Minnesota beat Mercer Island on the strength of starter Javier González's fine effort. The left-hander led his team to a win, 3-1. The Loons saw their record improve to 49-35.

The game could have flipped with one out in the top of the fifth. But Javier González made what his manager later called "an A-plus pitch." With runners on 1st and 2nd and Mercer Island trailing 3-0, González threw a fastball to Tom van Dam and van Dam struck out.
