Elkins, Bulls Beat Bisons, 8-6
George Elkins helped his team muscle past the Buffalo Bisons, 8-6. In the game, the Durham center fielder was 2-3 with 2 home runs and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. Lance Cole closed the door for Durham, picking up his 6th save of the year. The Bulls go to 39-68, putting them last in the South Division.

Durham used a well-timed hit by Luis Rubio to capture the win. The third baseman socked a run-scoring double in the top of the third inning to put the Bulls ahead, 2-1. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"Glad to get this win," said Elkins. "But we need to keep playing at a high level."
