Chicago and Baltimore duked it out and the Explorers came out victorious.

Though he had a stellar game, Starling Marte could not prevent his team, the Baltimore Wildcats, from losing, 8-6, to the Chicago Explorers. Marte went 4 for 5 with a double and 3 singles. The Explorers improved their record to 66-64 with the win over Baltimore.

Chicago left fielder Colton Cowser contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the second. With two down, he hit a cutter to right-center field for a 2-run single. It was his 130th hit of the season and put the Explorers ahead, 2-0.

"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Cowser.
