Mustangs Deal Guardians 3-2 Setback
The Cleveland (Rk+) Guardians got a sterling performance from catcher Ricky Cruz, but the Billings Mustangs still prevailed, 3-2. Cruz was 2-3 with a home run and a walk. Jose Mercado notched the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 1.1 innings. His record now sits at 2-2. Billings has now won 4 in a row.

Billings relied on the hitting of Troy Gallagher to pick up the win. The left fielder clubbed a solo home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Mustangs on top, 3-2. For the game, Gallagher had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Every loss stings," said Cleveland (Rk+) manager Andy Robles. "This one is no exception."
