Midwest League Action (Game of 5/28)

May 28 scoreboard.

If there's a quote in the story, we'll use it.

@Kane County 3, Wisconsin 1: "Did we win this game or did Wisconsin beat themselves?" Cougars' manager Aaron Nieckula asked rhetorically. "We just took advantage of some mistakes on their end and the pitching staff did a fantastic job."

South Bend 8, @West Michigan 3: For the first time since last June, the Whitecaps have lost three consecutive home games following an 8-3 defeat at the hands of the South Bend Silver Hawks.

Dayton 5, @Fort Wayne 4: "We just made more mistakes than they did,” Wizards manager Doug Dascenzo said. Go read for another weird play in Fort Wayne.

Great Lakes 7, @Lansing 4: For the second straight contest, the Lansing Lugnuts could not overcome an early deficit as they dropped a 7-4 decision at Oldsmobile Park to the Great Lakes Loons in the first meeting between the teams this season.

Cedar Rapids 5, @Peoria 3: The argument seemed civil, if tense, at first. But Gutierrez ejected the manager. “I asked where the pitch was and he wouldn’t answer me,” Sandberg said. “I asked again where the pitch was at. He said a ball and then he had some choice words for me for coming out there.

@Clinton 1, Beloit 0 (10 innings): [B]ut thankfully for LumberKings fans it was Tim Smith's walk-off single that accounted for the only run as Clinton prevailed 1-0 over the Beloit Snappers Wednesday night.

Burlington 4, @Quad Cities 1 (11 innings): “It sounds a little crazy when you have just two hits, but this was a game we probably should have won. We certainly had our chances,’’ River Bandits manager Steve Dillard said.
