Explorers Rip Portland, 11-2
The Chicago Explorers defeated the Portland Jaguars, 11-2, in part because of catcher Salvador Perez. Perez was 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 4 for the Explorers. Chicago has now won 3 in a row.

Jace Jung had a big 2-run home run for the Explorers in the top of the sixth inning. With Chicago leading 3-2 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a sinker from fireballing right-hander Kumar Rocker and punished it. The result was his 15th home run of the season, which put the Explorers on top, 5-2.

"We had a nice day," said Chicago skipper Rock Carpenter.
