Explorers Win at Anaheim, 10-5
The Chicago Explorers topped the Anaheim Diamonds by a score of 10-5. Leading the way was catcher Ben Rortvedt. Rortvedt went 2 for 3 with a double and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2 for the Explorers. With the victory, the Explorers upped their record to 39-33.

Jesus Sanchez had a big 2-run double for the Explorers in the top of the second inning. With Chicago leading 4-1 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from 33-year old right-handed pitcher Ben Lively and swatted a double to center. It was his 9th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Explorers ahead, 6-1.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Sanchez said.
