The Butler BlueSox traveled to Chicago to take on the Dupage Dragons and came away with a 9-6 win.  Brain Billigen led the Sox offensively with possibly his best game of the summer, going three-for-four with four RBIs and hit his third home run, he also scored two runs in the game.  Brian Youchak went two-for-three and picked up an RBI and Brett Zurliene went two-for-five with two RBIs.  Andrew DiNardo went four innings and gave up all six runs but did get the win.  The BlueSox are at home tonight against NorthCoast.  The Slippery Rock Sliders defeated NorthCoast last night by a final of 6-4.  Jason Petkac and Kenny Stoneback each went two-for-four and picked up an RBI.  Starting pitcher for the Sliders Mark Wilder went seven innings and gave up three runs only two earned.  The Sliders are also at home tonight, they take on Danville.
