Beloit Sky Carp News Release
A late rally by the Snappers wasn't enough to catch the Chiefs on Sunday afternoon. Peoria scored 11 runs on 16 hits and defeated the Snappers, 11-9.
After being down 9-2 heading into the sixth, the Snappers' looked out of commission and beaten down. Three runs in the bottom of the sixth and four runs in the bottom of the seventh helped the Snappers tie the game at 9-9. RBI's from Garrett Olson (2), Allan de San Miguel (2), Danny Berg (2), and Wilson Ramos helped get Beloit back in the game.
