Midwest League Action: Games of May 28, 2009

Complete scoreboard

@Dayton 5, Wisconsin 0: “It’s not about how many hits you get, it’s how you get them,” manager Todd Benzinger said. “When guys are on base, you want for your lineup to be itching to get them in. They’ve turned up their aggressiveness with guys on base.”

Kane County 5, @Great Lakes 4 (10 innings): Loooooons version

@West Michigan 8, Quad Cities 0: Ben Guez hit his first grand slam when he was 8 years old, on a day that happened to be his mother's birthday. Thursday, the West Michigan Whitecaps center fielder gave the same birthday present to his father, Charles, who was among the crowd of 8,557 at Fifth Third Ballpark.

Burlington 4, @Lansing 2; Lansing 7, @Burlington 2: Bees version | Lugnuts version

Beloit 4, @South Bend 2: Alberto Diaz dug in with the bases loaded and two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning, facing a full count and his South Bend team trailing 4-2 on Thursday night at Coveleski Stadium. The Silver Hawks slugger cut loose with a vicious rip on pure heat from Beloit pitcher Joe Testa,

Cedar Rapids 3, @Fort Wayne 2 (11 innings): “Yesterday’s game, they get 11 runs in the first two innings; today, they only get one. So yeah, it’s definitely progress.”

Clinton 8, @Peoria 3: Untimely pitching and limited offensive production were struggles the Peoria Chiefs wrestled with in the first seven games of the homestand so there was no reason to think it would improve in the last.
