Álvarez Smacks 3 Homers in 4-2 Coalition Win
The Chi-town Coalition stymied the Edmonton Trappers, 4-2, at John Ducey Park. Juan Álvarez had a good day at the plate. He hit 3 home runs for Chi-town. Juan Sánchez collected his 16th save. Chi-town now has a record of 34-29 with the win.

The Trappers had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Coalition going into the top of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 23-year old left fielder Pat Forbes came to the plate. Forbes hit a solo home run on a 0-1 knuckleball from Edmonton hurler Jeroen Verhoeven. It was Forbes's 24th home run of the year.

In postgame comments to the Chi-town Daily, Álvarez said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
