Kane County Beats Clinton, 3-0
Jesús Fonseca brought his A-game to help Kane County defeat the Clinton LumberKings, 3-0. Jerry Rhodes saved it for Kane County. The win puts Kane County at 3-3.

Kane County took a 3-0 lead on Norberto Muñóz's 1st home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Muñóz hit in the top of the eighth, left Clinton pitcher Cam Rice visibly frustrated.

"What's not to like about a win?" said Muñóz.
