In a tight affair between the Mississippi Braves and the Birmingham Barons, pitcher Prince Roper was in the zone. The Mississippi right-hander helped his team win the game, 3-1. Carlos Menchaca picked up the save, his 5th. Their 46-58 record puts the Braves last in the South Division.

The Braves got a big at-bat from catcher Brian Kirby. For the game, Kirby went 1-3 with a double. In the bottom of the fifth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a run-scoring double. His 9th double of the season gave Mississippi a 1-0 lead.

"Bottom line," said Birmingham skipper Joey Master, "we didn't play well enough to win."
