Muehlberg Launches 2 Dingers, But Cedar Rapids Wins
The Cedar Rapids Kernels withstood an impressive performance by Quad Cities center fielder Nick Muehlberg to defeat the River Bandits, 6-5, at Veterans Memorial Stadium. Muehlberg hit 2 home runs. He drove in 5 runs and scored twice. Cedar Rapids is now 54-62, while Quad Cities is 53-63.

Cedar Rapids shortstop Sal Gutierrez delivered a 3-run home run in the bottom of the seventh. Overall, he went 3 for 3, picking up 1 home run, 1 single, and 1 double. He scored 2 runs and knocked in 4.

"I don't feel you win baseball games by working harder than the other team or 'wanting it more,'" Gutierrez told the Cedar Rapids Today. "You win just by scoring more runs."
