Fans who congregated at Parkview Field were treated to extra-inning drama.

The West Michigan Whitecaps knocked off the Fort Wayne TinCaps, 9-3, at Parkview Field. José Ramírez was a big reason West Michigan won. The shortstop was 4-6 with 4 singles and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 3. With the win over Fort Wayne, the Whitecaps improved to 84-26.

West Michigan used a timely hit from Bob Kilmartin to get the win. The designated hitter stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the 13th inning to put the Whitecaps ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"Exciting game to play in," said Ramírez. "Getting the win makes it even better."
