MotorBoaters 8-5 Winners Over Billings
A 4-RBI performance from Ángel Ortíz, who is tied for 8th in the SAA in home runs with 3, helped the Lake Murray MotorBoaters beat the Billings Polar Bears, 8-5. Mark Christian got the win, improving to 2-1. He worked 6.2 innings, giving up 5 runs on 8 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 0. Max Burse was credited with the save for Lake Murray, his 2nd of the season.

Lake Murray grabbed the momentum in the bottom of the fifth, when Ortíz hit a grand slam home run off Roberto Rodríguez. His 3rd home run of the season put the MotorBoaters out in front, 7-5.

"I'm proud to be a part of what we've got going on here," Ortíz told the Lake Murray Citizen. "It's a great group and we're happy with the win."

The Polar Bears drop to 6-9, as their fitful start to the 2062 campaign continues.
