Beloit Sky Carp News Release

BELOIT, WI - Behind a feverish Friday night crowd at Pohlman Field, the Beloit Snappers couldn't quite pull out a victory, as they fell 4-1 to the South Bend Cubs.

The Cubs scored four runs in the middle innings, but the roar of the crowd never diminished. Beloit's left fielder Thomas Jones demolished a homer to left center and scored the first run of the game for the Snappers, making it 4-1, Cubs.

After a pair of strikeouts to start the bottom of the ninth inning, Griffin Conine reached second on a two-out error. Down to their final out, Pohlman Field was at a frenzy, but Nic Ready grounded to second to end the game and break the Snappers' four-game winning streak.

Beloit Top Performers: Nic Ready went 2-for-3 with a walk, logging his first multi-hit game. Thomas Jones crushed his second homer of the season. Antonio Velez threw two scoreless innings in relief.
