Hot Rods Topple Captains, 7-6, as Cooper Shines
The Bowling Green Hot Rods defeated the Lake County Captains, 7-6, at Classic Park today. Leading the charge for Bowling Green was third baseman Ronald Cooper. He was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Tommy Leppert earned the win after being called from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.1 innings. He upped his record to 4-1. Derek Melton finished to wrap up his 1st save.

It could have been a different outcome for Bowling Green, had it not been for Greg Hilton, the 22-year old first baseman . Hilton contributed a 2-run single in the top of the first inning to put Bowling Green up, 2-0.

"We'll relax tonight and get back after it tomorrow," Cooper said after the game.

Bowling Green is now 44-40, Lake County 42-42.
