Chiefs Score Late, Clip Cougars, 8-7
The Kane County Cougars could not turn a fine performance from third baseman Ed Wills into a win. Instead, the Peoria Chiefs prevailed, 8-7, in 10 innings. Wills was 2 for 4 with a double and 2 walks, while scoring 2 times. Peoria reliever Víctor Gutiérrez picked up the win, raising his record to 1-0. Jerry Rhodes was tagged with the loss. Jim Sullivan earned the save, his 2nd.

Mike Jones drove in one run for Peoria. The 21-year old left fielder had a key at-bat in the top of the tenth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 7-7 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Jerry Rhodes. It was his 3rd RBI of the season.

"I like the roll we're on right now," said Jones after the game.

Peoria has run its win streak to 7 in a row.
