Beach Bums' comeback falls just short against Crushers

Posted: Updated:

TRAVERSE CITY - Chris Kay's 2-run homer in the ninth pulled Traverse City within two runs of the Lake Erie Crushers, but that was as close as they'd get, falling 5-3 on Thursday night.

Kay drove in all three Beach Bums' runs, with two hits, including an RBI ground-rule double in the fourth.

Game Two of the series is Friday night at Wuerfel Park, with Brooks Belter expected to face off against Eric Gonzalez-Diaz.
