The Cubs advance to the 18AAA semi-finals after a stellar pitching performance by Will Bartos, guiding the 10-2 victory with 7 innings, 7 hits, 1 ER, no walks and 6 k's. "I've seen lil Willie pitch for a long time", says local resident Colin Cumberbatch, "and he was back to his old self that I've always remembered". 

Offensively, after 5 innings of a pitchers duel, the Cubs finally broke out with  4 runs in the 6th followed by 4 more runs in the 7th to take a commanding 10-1 lead, effectively sealing the victory. Leading the offense has been Chris "father, son and holy ghost" Murray who picked up another 4 hits, which gives him 13 hits over his last 4 games. "This guy is on fire right now, even hotter than Taylor Swift", said pitcher Zach "I'm a vegan" Newhuis, while grabbing some leftover McDonald's sausage mcmuffins that were laying around. 

"WE'RE VERY HAPPY TO GET THE W TODAY, LETS FRICKEN GO RIGHT NOW" said C Tyler Lewan calmly in the dugout talking with reporters. 

With the win, the Cubs advance to the semi-finals against the Denver Green this coming sunday at Long Lake at 12:30.
