Mustangs Win with Late Heroics
The Billings-Indianapolis game took longer to complete because of the rain. But it was worth it for the home team in the end.

The Billings Mustangs in 10 innings downed the Indianapolis Ambition, 10-8, at Cobb Field. Pat Bean led the way, going 5-for-6 for Billings. Ernie Nielsen earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. He upped his record to 1-0.

Bean delivered in the clutch for Billings. In the bottom of the tenth, he took a 2-2 slider from Indianapolis pitcher Bobby Jones and parked it over the fence. The 2-run home run won it for Billings.

"This place sure got loud," said Robbie Doyle, the Billings manager.

Indianapolis drops to 12-12.
