Loons Get Hard-Earned Win
The Great Lakes Loons did just enough to sneak past the West Michigan Whitecaps, 6-5, at Dow Diamond. Great Lakes pitcher Chris Ramsey, in particular, had a standout performance. The winner was Great Lakes reliever Jarrod Lane, now 2-3. The loser was Aurelio González. Today's win puts Great Lakes at 42-40, while West Michigan falls to 62-20.

The decisive blow was delivered by Jeff Hamilton in the bottom of the second when he hit a bases-clearing double off 22-year old right-handed pitcher Thad Kennedy to win the game for Great Lakes. The home crowd went nuts.

"This stadium was a-rockin'," said Ramsey.
