Ignacio Zavala did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Akron RubberDucks from being beaten, 7-5, to the Richmond Flying Squirrels at Canal Park. Zavala went 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Richmond is first in the Northern Division with a record of 20-9.

Richmond used the timely hitting of Tristan Gilliam to seize the win. The catcher stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 11th inning to put the Flying Squirrels on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Winning never gets dull," said Gilliam.
