@Burlington 4, Rattlers 1: "We might be out of the playoff hunt, but we try to tell the guys to play the game the right way, not matter if it's a game like tonight or the seventh game of the World Series," Bees manager Jim Gabella said. "We want them to go out and play hard. This was a game that showed what we're capable of."

@Fort Wayne 5, South Bend 4; South Bend 4, @Fort Wayne 1: “Right now, it’s just nice to get the win,” [Jeremy Hunt] said, laughing. “We always try to stay positive, though it is very difficult at times when we’re getting down like that. We still have our heads above water and just are trying to finish out the season on a strong note.”

@Kane County 5, Clinton 1: Trevor Cahill contributed his 10th quality start in 13 outings to become a 10-game winner...

@West Michigan 5, Dayton 4: "I can't recall winning a game on a hit batter," Whitecaps manager Tom Brookens said. "It's a crazy game and you take it ... you take it any way you can.

@Lansing 6, Great Lakes 2: Lansing took the lead quickly by scoring twice in the first inning.

@Peoria 6, Beloit 0: It wasn't until Jose Ceda, the fourth Peoria Chiefs' reliever in the game, struck out Garrett Olson to end the sixth no-hitter in franchise history that anxiety left.

Cedar Rapids 4, @Quad Cities 1: “We can talk to them, hold closed-door meetings, work with them day after day, but in the end, the players are the ones who have to get it done. They have to want it and go out and get it and right now, I don’t see enough fight,’’ [Keith] Mitchell said.
