Black Barons Lose at Home, 7-2
Indianapolis pitcher Luis Padrón did his part in helping his team beat the Birmingham Black Barons, 7-2. The right-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. The ABCs now have a record of 70-72.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Joe Morgan? The Indianapolis second baseman had a 2-run double in the top of the seventh inning to put the ABCs on top, 5-2. For the game, Morgan had 1 double and 2 singles in 4 at-bats.

"Luis -- his tempo and rhythm were good," said ABCs manager Daniel Makonnen. "He was the key to us winning."
