The inspired effort of West Michigan first baseman Ted Garland was not enough to prevent a loss, 9-5, to the Dayton Dragons. Garland went 4-5 with 4 singles and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. The win went to Alex Phillips in relief, making him now 1-0. Joe Howard took the loss for West Michigan. Picking up the save was Juan Sánchez. He's now 35 for 40 in save chances.

José Amalia was 2 for 3 with 2 singles for Dayton. The 25-year old first baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 4-4 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Joe Howard. It was his 24th RBI of the season.

"Their at-bats were really impressive against us," said losing manager Bo Porter.

Dayton is now 61-60, while West Michigan is 92-29.
