Spikes Claim 6-5 Triumph
The inspired effort of Brooklyn designated hitter Shayne Ward was not enough to prevent a loss, 6-5, to the State College Spikes. Ward hit 2 home runs. Zane Kossakowski, the winning pitcher, improved to 8-2. He pitched 5.2 innings, giving up 5 hits and 3 runs, while striking out 2 and walking 1. Jermain Shaw was called on to finish, recording his 7th save.

The Spikes got a big at-bat from shortstop Eli Stein. For the game, Stein went 1 for 2 with a home run, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the first, with a runner on 2nd, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 7th home run of the season gave State College a 2-0 lead.

"We ground out the win," said Stein. "That's all that matters."

State College, at 39-13, is 4 games up in the New York-Penn League South Division.
