Sabo Mashes 2 Homers in 16-6 Indianapolis Win
The Indianapolis ABCs beat the Ottawa Mounties by a score of 16-6. Indianapolis third baseman Chris Sabo deserved the lion's share of the credit. Sabo was 3-5 with 2 home runs and a double. He scored 3 runs and drove in 4 for the ABCs. The ABCs now have a mark of 57-59.

The game was at a stalemate until center fielder Oscar Charleston came to bat in the top of the eighth. Facing Ottawa pitcher Jesse Crain, he hit a 1-0 slider for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Indianapolis on top, 4-3.

"Every time you put a 'W' on the board is always good," said Sabo.
