Columbus catcher Jeff Grotewold was a significant contributor in his team's 14-4 triumph over the Milwaukee Otters. He was 3-4 with a home run, a double, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 3 times and drove in 4 for Columbus. Jeff Pico earned the win for Columbus. He lasted 6 innings, allowing 3 earned runs on 6 hits, while striking out 5. With the win, he raised his record to 8-8. With the win, Columbus goes to 57-54, while the Otters fall to 51-60.

Grotewold had no bigger at-bat than in the bottom of the sixth when the 30-year old catcher hit a 2-run home run. The home run gave Columbus the lead, 6-3. It was his 13th home run of the season.

"We did more than enough to get the win," said Grotewold.
