Denver Downed, 6-2, by Stars
Getting offensive support from Pete Crow-Armstrong, the Cincinnati Stars topped the Denver Bears, 6-2. Crow-Armstrong was 2 for 3 with a home run, while adding 5 RBI and scoring once for the Stars. Keegan Akin, credited with the win in relief, is now 2-0. He allowed no runs on no hits in 1.1 innings. The 4th-place Bears have dropped 6 straight games.

The game was at a stalemate until designated hitter Randal Grichuk came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Denver pitcher Andrew Chafin, he hit a first pitch fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Cincinnati on top, 3-2.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Crow-Armstrong.
