Matt Williams slammed a homerun and had 2 RBI at Coors Field where the
Michigan Timber beat the Sterling Silver Sluggers 7 to 5.

Michigan scored the winning runs in the bottom of the 8th inning plating 2
runs utilizing 2 base hits.  Juan Gonzalez led off the inning for Michigan
when he drew a walk.  Williams followed and he clubbed a two-run home run.
Sterling threatened in the 9th but their rally came up short.  

The win went to Bobby Witt(2-0) who allowed 1 run in 2 innings. Trevor Hoffman
recorded his 15th save.  Doug Brocail(2-4) ended up with the loss in relief.

'Some losses are harder to take than others' Connie Mack lamented after the
game.  'This was one of them.'
