Hot Rods Pick Up 4-3 Win Against South Bend
Bowling Green pitcher Steve Brown did his part in helping his team beat the South Bend Cubs, 4-3. The right-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. Bowling Green now sits at 64-56, while South Bend falls to 52-68.

Chris Jones, who is tied for 3rd in the MID in hits with 150, had a direct impact on the outcome. Jones contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the sixth inning to put Bowling Green up, 4-2.

"Steve has got a slow heartbeat," said Bowling Green manager James Hoyt. "He doesn't panic or anything."
