4-3 Loss Extends St. Petersburg Skid
The Minnesota Loons scored a tight 4-3 win versus the St. Petersburg Thunder at Baby Thunder Dome. Minnesota pitcher Conner Hopkins held his own in the contest. Minnesota has a 3-game win streak, while St. Petersburg has lost 13 in a row.

Minnesota used the bat of Jorge Gavilanes to capture the win. The shortstop jacked a 3-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Loons ahead, 4-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a dandy.

"We're scuffling right now," said losing manager Emílio Sáenz.
