Peoria Chiefs (22-30) 2 3 1 0 2 0 0 0 X 8 17 1
Chiefs Win at Home, 8-5
The Peoria Chiefs had to overcome a big game from Kane County third baseman Jim Unknown to leave Dozer Park with a victory. And they did, winning, 8-5. Unknown was 4-4 with a home run, 3 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 runs. The Chiefs, at 22-30, inhabit last place in the Western Division.

Greg Baldwin had a big 2-run double for the Chiefs in the bottom of the second inning. With Peoria leading 3-2 and the bases loaded, he got a cutter from 25-year old right-handed pitcher Tom Schmitt and swatted a double to right. It was his 2nd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Chiefs ahead, 5-2.

"It's the best feeling when you come through for your teammates," said Baldwin.
