Aztecs Dealt 5-4 Home Loss
Both teams had their chances, but the Chicago Beefs eventually prevailed.

The Chicago Beefs scored a tight, 5-4 win versus the Mexico City Aztecs at Ballpark of Mexico City. Chicago pitcher La`nh Vu held his own in the contest. The win went to Tiljad Mbizi in relief, making him now 4-0. Joseph Muller took the loss for Mexico City. Earning his 7th save of the year was Thomas Charbonnier.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Gunnar Korner to seize the win. The catcher stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Beefs on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"What's not to like about a win?" said Korner.

Chicago is now 77-54, Mexico City 79-52.
