Barons Stop Suns, 3-2
Birmingham Barons starter Ryan Bridges led his team to victory over the Jacksonville Suns, 3-2. The right-hander was locked-in. Bridges, now 6-5, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 5, walking 1, and allowing 2 runs. The first-place Barons hiked their record to 41-34.

Ben DePue had a big 2-run double for the Barons in the bottom of the first inning. With Birmingham leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a changeup from 24-year old right-handed pitcher Rich Tulak and swatted a double to right. It was his 13th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Barons ahead, 3-0.

"It's nice to get the results when you're feeling good and throwing the ball well," said Bridges after the game.
