Jimmy Crutchfield was an on-base magnet, as he got himself four singles, the problem was the Crawfords had a problem getting the runners to home -- getting dragged through 10 innings, before Andrew Patterson's sac fly took the lead in the top of the inning. Crawfords keep cruising with league's best 6 game winning-streak.
