Madison Black Wolf first baseman Yoán Moncada left the Troy pitching staff in ruins at Comiskey Park, beating the Trojans, 12-4, with a prodigious three-home run performance.

For the game, the Madison first baseman had 3 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 5 and scored 3 runs.
Yoán Moncada hit a three-run home run off Masahiro Tanaka in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Masahiro Tanaka in the 2nd, walked in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Nelson Cruz in the 6th and flied out in the 8th.
