Black Bears Pocket 8-5 Win Against State College
Thunder Bay took on State College in front of a lively crowd.

The Thunder Bay Black Bears beat the State College Swallowtails, 8-5, at Stars Field. Miguel Benavides, in particular, was impressive. He went 2-4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Mike Perschau closed out the game, earning his 2nd save.

Chris Pagan had a big 2-run double for the Black Bears in the top of the third inning. With Thunder Bay leading 4-2 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from 23-year old right-handed pitcher Robby Welsh and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 3rd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Black Bears ahead, 6-2.

"I'm trying to see the ball big, see the ball up in the zone and put the barrel on it," Benavides told the Thunder Bay Herald.

The loss drops State College to 4-1.
