Crop Circles Deal Bearers 8-4 Defeat
The Iowa Crop Circles knocked off the St. Paul Bearers, 8-4, in Frontier action at Casket County Stadium. Iowa pitcher and Mankato, Minnesota, native Sean Springfield had an outstanding performance. The last-place Crop Circles have won 5 in a row.

Emílio Ibarra had a big run-scoring double for the Crop Circles in the top of the second inning. With Iowa leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he got a curveball from 25-year old center fielder Mauro Zarate and swatted a double to left. It was his 20th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Crop Circles ahead, 2-0.

"The only difference is executing pitches and not executing pitches," said Springfield. "When you don't execute, you get beat. When you execute, you usually give your team a chance to win."
