Grizzlies Grind Out 2-1 Win
Gateway Grizzlies starter Cullen Mentzel turned in a sparkling performance against the Binghamton Rumble Ponies, leading his team to a 2-1 win. Gateway sits in 8th place in the Eastern League Southwest Division at 52-58.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. In the top of the seventh, with the game tied, Gabe Diniz was at the plate when Gateway scored 1 on an error. The miscue enabled the Grizzlies to go in front, 2-1.

"You have to trust that what you're doing is going to produce results," said Mentzel.
