Whitecaps Jolt Dragons, 4-2, with Late Rally
The West Michigan Whitecaps wanted a good start from Dan Hayes -- and he delivered one. The result was a 4-2 West Michigan win over the Dayton Dragons at Fifth Third Field. West Michigan reliever Craig Wells picked up the win, while Rocco Barry took the loss for Dayton. West Michigan goes to 32-31, Dayton to 35-28.

West Michigan used a timely hit from Luis Cruz to get the win. The left fielder stroked a bases-clearing double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Whitecaps ahead, 4-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"At the end of the day, it's always about your starting pitcher," said West Michigan skipper Noah Fourie.
