BIRDS WINNING STREAK HALTED AT FIVE
Rosemont, IL – A big sixth inning helped Chicago pull away on Wednesday as the Dogs dealt the Canaries a 9-3 setback at Impact Field.
Chicago opened the scoring with a two-run homerun in the fourth inning and added an RBI single in the fifth.
The Birds tied the game with a pair of homers in the top of the sixth; a two-run shot from Josh Rehwaldt and a solo blast by Michael Curialle.
But the Dogs sent eleven batters to plate in the home half and scored six runs, including a two-out grand slam, to pull in front for good.
Joe Vos led the offense with three hits while Dylan Kirkeby fanned six over five innings and took a no-decision. The Canaries (25-23) will look to clinch the series when the two teams meet on Thursday at 6:30pm.
