Sod Poodles Paste 6-4 Loss on Whitecaps
The Ames Sod Poodles welcomed the West Michigan Whitecaps to an night game at Fifth Third Ballpark.

Due in large part to second baseman Tedd Adekunle, the Ames Sod Poodles sunk the West Michigan Whitecaps, 6-4. Adekunle went 4 for 5 with 4 singles. Ames pitcher Conrad De La Cruz got the win. He's now 6-5. Ed Butler was tagged with the loss.

Ames used a timely hit from Eli Cundiff to get the win. The pinch hitter stroked a 2-run double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Sod Poodles ahead, 5-4. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"We're playing like we're capable of," said Ames manager Jake DiVita.

Ames, at 78-43, is 3½ games up in the Midwest League Western Division.
