June 12, 2025 - JOLIET, IL - Blake Berry had been here before. On May 26th to be exact. Same pitcher, similar circumstances. On that day, he hit a two run single to give the Slammers a 10-7 lead. Today the stakes were much higher.

After a tense game through seven innings, the Gateway Grizzlies (14-10), mashed five runs in the eighth to pull away from the Slammers (13-11).
