Baseball fans saw a good contest between the Greenville Drive and Rome Braves.

The Rome Braves got a sterling performance from pitcher Francisco Caban, but the Greenville Drive still prevailed, 4-2. Caban threw 6.2 innings of 5-hit ball. Eli Villarreal snagged the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits over 2.2 innings. He's now 2-0 on the season.

Greenville needed the clutch hitting of Mario Alvarez to seal the deal. The first baseman swatted a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Drive on top, 4-2. For the game, Alvarez had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

Said Greenville manager Manny Chavez: "At the end of the day, these guys have to perform between the lines, and I think they did."

The Drive sport a record of 33-49.
