Another day, another victory for the red-hot Billings Mustangs.

The timely hitting of Tom Hedges helped the Billings Mustangs down the Chicago (Rk+) Cubs, 7-4. Hedges was 3-5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 and driving in 3 for the Mustangs. Robert Roane, 1-1, earned the win in relief. He allowed 1 run on 1 hit in 3 innings.

The game turned with one out in the top of the fourth. That's when Hedges hit a 2-run home run off Sean Price. It propelled the Mustangs into the lead, 3-1.

"Good, gritty kind of win," said Mustangs manager Jon Koehn.

The first-place Mustangs improved to 28-11.
