Almost There: Memphis On Cusp of CS Triumph After 10-6 Win
Despite a great performance by Kansas City left fielder Josh Williams, the Memphis Bears defeated the Stars by the score of 10-6 at Stars Stadium today. Williams was 2 for 3 with 2 home runs, a walk, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 3 times and drove in 2, but he could not prevent the Bears from moving one game closer to the World Series. Memphis now leads the League Championship Series 3-1.

With Memphis trailing 5-4 in the top of the fourth, Grant Miller hit a 2-run home run off Kansas City pitcher Jesse Hayes. It put the Bears ahead 6-5.

"We maximized our offense today," said Memphis skipper Nate Grieb. "That makes everyone's life easier."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Stars Stadium in Kansas City.
