Battle Jacks Two Home Runs in 5-4 Durham Win
Durham beat Norfolk at Harbor Park, eking out a 5-4 win. The triumph was primarily due to first baseman Jonathan Battle. He went 3-4 with 2 home runs and a double, while adding 5 RBI and scoring twice. Nalber Beaver, the winner, improved to 4-2. He held the Tides to 4 runs on 6 hits over 6.2 innings, while striking out 4 and walking 4. Ken Brusky earned the save for Durham, his 9th.

Battle contributed a big hit, a 3-run home run, for Durham in the top of the third. With his team trailing 2-1, Battle took a sinker from Juan Marquez and stroked the home run to center. His 15th home run of the season allowed the Bulls to leap in front, 4-2.

"I'll probably toss and turn tonight," Norfolk manager Alfredo Rojas said, following the tough loss.

The third-place Bulls go to 67-71.
