The Chicago Explorers had to reckon with Portland Jaguars hurler Chris Sale. Sale, who finished 5th in the UL in ERA with 3.07 in 2016, overwhelmed the opposition in the 6-1 Jaguars triumph. The Jaguars improved their record to 30-39 with the win over Chicago.

The Jaguars got a big at-bat from second baseman Caleb Durbin. For the game, Durbin was 1-4 with a double and a walk. In the top of the third, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a run-scoring double. His 14th double of the season gave Portland a 2-1 lead.

"Chris pounded the strike zone and made good pitches when he needed to," said Portland manager Darren Meserve.
