West Michigan Rallies for 5-4 Victory
Behind the hitting of Ryan Knee, the West Michigan Whitecaps clipped the Clinton LumberKings, 5-4. Knee belted 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice for the Whitecaps. West Michigan pitcher Jorge Cordero got the win, upping his record to 3-1. Alex Franco got the loss. The save was credited to Kyle Harrop, his 12th.

West Michigan used the timely hitting of Seth Shutts to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Whitecaps on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"You get some opportunities, you better take advantage of them," said Clinton manager Mitchell Heller.

West Michigan, at 57-42, occupies second place in the Eastern Division.
