Barons Stop Braves, 9-4
Good production from designated hitter Alex Flores helped the Birmingham Barons topple the Mississippi Braves, 9-4. Flores was 2-4 with a home run, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Barons. Angelo Trejo got the win, improving to 2-0. He held the Braves to 4 runs on 6 hits over 5.2 innings, while striking out 7 and walking 4. Franklin Ricardo, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 2nd save.

Jorge Gonzalez had a big run-scoring triple for the Barons in the bottom of the second inning. With Birmingham leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he got a fastball from 23-year old right-handed pitcher Roland Carroll and swatted a triple to right-center. It was his 6th triple of the season, and more importantly, it put the Barons ahead, 2-0.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Flores.

The Barons, at 73-58, sit in second place in the South Division.
