Clutch Hitting Delivers Win for Warhawks
The <Kentucky Lions:team#7> got a superb performance from pitcher <Ichiro Koyama:player#11414>, but the <Illinois Warhawks:team#74> still won the game, 5-2. Koyama threw 7.0 innings of 3-hit ball. <Rubén Valdéz:player#11540>, credited with the save, is now 17 for 20 in save opportunities. Illinois currently is in last place in the Frontier League East at 57-78.

Illinois used the timely hitting of <Danny George:player#148> to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring  single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Warhawks on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

George called the win the result of "everyone working in tandem."
