The Michigan Timber got by the Iowa MoonlightGraham at Coors Field.  The final
score was 5 to 3.

Michigan scored 2 runs in the 7th inning when they came up with 3 base hits.
After an out was recorded, Danny Bautista jump-started the rally as he ripped
a one-base hit, and an error was also committed.  Bobby Witt stepped up to
the plate and he slapped a single which scored a run.  Tripp Cromer then
doubled.  Rey Sanchez followed next and he hit a deep fly scoring the final
run of the inning.  Michigan and Iowa each finished the afternoon with 9
hits.  

The winning pitcher was Witt(4-1) who allowed 3 runs in 7 and 2/3 innings.
Witt got relief help from Trevor Hoffman who gained credit for his 24th save.
Kirk Rueter(5-8) suffered the loss.  

'I was a little good, a little bad and a little ugly.' said Witt, 'I was just
giving us a chance to win.'
