Indianapolis ABCs (10-11) 0 0 0 1 0 0 3 0 0 4 10 0
Homestead Grays (13-9) 0 4 0 0 0 0 1 0 X 5 12 0
8 Straight Wins for Grays
Indianapolis catcher Johnny Bench was sensational. He belted 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. But it wasn't enough to rally his team to a win. Homestead beat the ABCs, 5-4. Dave Giusti claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.1 innings. His record stands at 1-1. Josh Lindblom closed the door for Homestead, picking up his 3rd save of the year.

Homestead took a 5-4 lead on Honus Wagner's 1st triple of the season. The run-scoring triple, which Wagner hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Indianapolis pitcher Willie Mitchell visibly frustrated.

"We're obviously playing with a lot of confidence," said Homestead manager Daniel Makonnen.

The ABCs drop to 10-11 and continue their mediocre start to the 2001 season.
