Monarchs Come Back Late to Clip Clippers
Ashton Slake, who is tied for 3rd in the IA in strikeouts with 71, was locked in. The left-hander led the Cincinnati Monarchs to a 4-3 win against the Cleveland Clippers at Lakefront Park. Slake, who is tied for 2nd in the IA with a 1.14 WHIP, went the distance for Cincinnati. He gave up 3 runs on 8 hits. The 4th-place Monarchs now have a win-loss record of 31-27.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Will Bowling? The slugging third baseman Bowling stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put Cincinnati up, 4-3. For the game, he was 3 for 5, including 1 double and 2 singles.

"I'm happy we won," said Slake. "That's first and foremost. My goal is for the team to win the day I pitch, however it's done."
