This is the first meeting of 17 between the Lugnuts and Hot Rods this year. Lansing is coming off a 3-3 home- stand, winning two of three against Dayton before dropping two of three against South Bend. The Hot Rods, meanwhile, have won five of their last seven games and just completed a 4-2 road trip, winning two of three games at both Great Lakes and Fort Wayne. Yesterday: South Bend 10, Lansing 8. Jordan Groshans and Alejandro Kirk blasted two-run homers and Reggie Pruitt reached base five times on a single, double and three walks, but a six-run Cubs fifth proved the difference in the rubber match of a three-game series.
