IronPigs Clip Clippers, 4-3
Columbus got a valiant performance from pitcher Doug Mehling, but it wasn't enough to beat the Lehigh Valley IronPigs. Lehigh Valley won the game, 4-3. Mehling threw 7.0 innings of 5-hit ball for the losing team. Lehigh Valley reliever Jeremy Fletcher picked up the win, while Alex Espinal took the loss for Columbus. Lehigh Valley is now 27-78.

Lehigh Valley got the win thanks to a clutch hit from Jim Unknown. The center fielder stroked a bases-clearing double in the top of the ninth inning to put the IronPigs ahead, 4-3. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it had a major impact on the outcome.

"Win or lose, it's not the end of the world," said Unknown.
