Bears Drop Spirit, 7-2, with Late Score
The Denver Bears defeated the Los Angeles Spirit, 7-2, at Nike Field. Denver third baseman Christian Encarnacion-Strand had a superb performance. He went 3-4 with a home run, a double, and was hit by a pitch, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Denver reliever A.J. Puk was the winner. His record is now 7-1. The losing pitcher was Stephen Nogosek. The win gives Denver a season record of 81-63.

Encarnacion-Strand had a game-changing home run in the top of the eighth. On a first pitch cutter from Stephen Nogosek, he banged a 2-run home run to right, giving the Bears a 4-2 lead. It was the 23rd home run of the year for Encarnacion-Strand.

"I think we did a good job of looking for pitches we wanted to hit and put good swings on them," said Denver skipper Aaron Hill.
