Tula Fall Short at Pontiac, 4-3
The Pontiac Godfathers had to overcome a fine effort from Chicago pitcher Marcus Rollock to grab a narrow 4-3 win at Pontiac Copperdome. Rollock went 8 innings and allowed 2 runs. Pontiac reliever Minoru Sakata was the winner. His record is now 2-3. José Ferreira took the loss. Pontiac is now 46-49, Chicago 50-45.

The Godfathers were down to their last out in the bottom of the ninth when shortstop David Sterling turned a 1-2 splitter from José Ferreira into a 2-run double. The walk-off double electrified the Pontiac Copperdome denizens and sent the Godfathers home with a thrilling 4-3 win.

"We played a good game and came out on top," said Sterling.
