Escobar Pops Two Homers in 12-10 Win for Chicago
Eduardo Escobar powered the Chicago Explorers to a win over the Boston Minutemen. The final score was 12-10. The Chicago third baseman, who led the UL in doubles with 68 in 2019, was a force to be reckoned with. He banged out 3 extra-base hits, including 2 home runs and 1 double. The second-place Minutemen have dropped 4 straight games.

With Chicago leading 2-0 in the bottom of the first, Escobar hit a slider from Ryne Nelson for a grand slam home run. It was his 7th home run of the season and put the Explorers ahead, 6-0.

In postgame comments to the Chicago Herald, Escobar said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
