The Igloo was the site of an exciting ballgame between the Billings Polar Bears and Richland Rails.

The Billings Polar Bears picked up a win at The Igloo, topping the Richland Rails, 5-4. On the mound for Billings was right-hander James Little. He played a principal role in the triumph. The 'W' lifts Billings's record to 45-36.

Billings took a 5-4 lead in the bottom of the seventh inning, when Jalo Kemppinen hit a clutch 3-run home run to bring Polar Bears fans to their feet.

"James has got a slow heartbeat," said Billings manager César Guerra. "He doesn't panic or anything."
