| Clippers Go Down to Defeat, 5-2 | The Chicago Chiefs picked up a win at Patapsco Field, knocking off the Baltimore Clippers, 5-2. On the mound for Chicago was right-hander Troy Myers. He played a key role in the triumph. Myers yielded 2 runs over 7.2 innings to notch the win. He scattered 5 hits, walked 0, and struck out 2. His record improves to 6-7. Baltimore, at 46-44, has lost 4 straight.
Chicago used a clutch hit from Ricardo Castillo to get the win. The right fielder drilled a 3-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Chiefs ahead, 5-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a doozy.
"It's nice to step up when your team needs you," said Castillo.
