Dixon Hits Two Dingers, Porters Win, 9-7
A 3-RBI performance from designated hitter Eric Dixon, who finished 5th in the AL in RBI with 93 in 2040, led the Dublin Porters to a win over the Kyiv Cossacks, 9-7. Dublin pitcher Juan Gonzalez earned the win, hiking his record to 8-8. Justin Madsen suffered the loss. Chris Gills was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 20 of 22 save opportunities.

Ciro Montorsi went 2-4 with 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for Dublin. The three-time All-Star had a key at-bat in the top of the second. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a 2-run single off Justin Madsen. It was his 79th hit of the season.

"We're feeling good in this clubhouse right now after that one," Montorsi told the Dublin Herald.

The win elevated the Porters to 45-44.
