  3. Lake Erie took the win over the Wild Things for the first time in six tries, 5-1, Sunday night in a series finale. According to an Observer-Reporter article, "Sgambelluri (5-3) and Washington starter Kobe Foster (1-1) were locked in a scoreless pitchers’ duel until Lake Erie pushed across three runs in the fifth inning, getting RBI hits from Sean Cheely and Jackson Valera. The third run scored on an errant pickoff throw. The Crushers pushed the lead to 4-0 with a run in the sixth. Washington scored its lone run in the seventh when Cole Brannen’s bases-loaded infield single scored Ian Walters. The loss, combined with Evansville win at Gateway, trimmed Washington's lead in the Frontier League's West Division to 1 1/2 games."(Observer-Reporter)
