Beloit, WI (August 29, 2010) - Steven Liddle led a 19-hit barrage in Beloit's 11-5 win over the Bees on Sunday afternoon.

Liddle came up big, finishing a triple shy of the cycle with a walk and four RBI, including a two-run homer as part of a four-run Snappers rally in the sixth. Daniel Santana tied a Beloit season high with four hits, and Aaron Hicks had three and a walk. The hometown club had at least one hit in seven of their eight trips to the plate.

On the flip side, the Bees were given their share of chances by Snapper starter Pedro Guerra (W, 2-0). The righty allowed six hits and walked four in five innings, but held the opposition to only three runs. Ben Theriot's two-run single in the fourth briefly tied the game at two, and Alex McClure picked up the third of three consecutive singles in the fifth to drive home run number three. Jake Kuebler added a two-run single of his own in the seventh to complete the Burlington scoring.

Bees starter Dusty Odenbach (L, 8-10) was touched for six runs on 11 hits in four innings for the loss. Starling De La Rosa provided three scoreless innings of relief.

The Bees take on Beloit again on Monday night at 7:00 at Pohlman Field. Listen in on News Radio 1490 KBUR and GoBees.com for the pregame show starting at 6:40.
