The Cleveland Foresters finished things off in style.

The Foresters got a clutch hit from pinch hitter Frank Chandler. In the bottom of the tenth, he hit a run-scoring single to left-center, to win the game for the Foresters.

Chandler said afterward that he was "glad the fans were treated to a good ballgame."

With the win, the Foresters improved to 26-24.
