Both teams had their opportunities, but in the end, the Rapid City Rushmores got the win.

The Rapid City Rushmores topped the Birmingham Bears, 4-2, in Amber Waves League action at Ballpark of Birmingham. The game was highlighted by the performance of Rapid City pitcher Don Kennedy. Kennedy picked up the win for Rapid City, going 6 innings. He gave up 1 run on 3 hits. He now sports a record of 5-2.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Robert Gerosa? The Rapid City catcher had a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Rushmores on top, 3-0. For the game, Gerosa had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Enjoyed this one," Kennedy told the Rapid City Daily. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
