Cats Stay Hot, Beat Kangaroos, 8-5
Freddy Marley impressed in the 8-5 Geelong win over North Melbourne. Marley went 3 for 5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 3 and driving in 2. Reliever Dustan Blair picked up the win. His record improves to 9-2. Penn Murfitt took the loss. The current losing streak for North Melbourne has reached 5 games.

Had Ben Kennard not delivered a key base hit in the top of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Kennard hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the Cats.

"Hitting, winning. It's just contagious," said Kennard.
