Curtis Sparrow propelled his team to victory over the Fort Wayne TinCaps. The final score was 3-2, West Michigan. After today's action, West Michigan sits at 58-52; Fort Wayne slips to 50-60.

The TinCaps had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Whitecaps going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 22-year old first baseman Matt Garduno came to the plate. Garduno hit a solo home run on a 0-1 fastball from Fort Wayne hurler Bill Pierce. It was Garduno's 13th home run of the year.

Garduno told reporters after the game: "Runs were at a premium, so a good win for us."
