Indianapolis Downed, 8-6, by Red Sox
Memphis and Indianapolis took Mother Nature's best shot and still managed to complete their ballgame.

Indianapolis second baseman Joe Morgan had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 8-6, to Memphis at Crosley Field. Morgan went 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. Memphis reliever Tommy de la Cruz picked up the win, raising his record to 4-0. Rob Dibble was tagged with the loss. Rollie Fingers notched his 4th save of the season.

Andrew Benintendi was 2-4 with 2 singles and a walk for Memphis. The 23-year old left fielder had a key at-bat in the top of the ninth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 6-6 tie with a run-scoring walk off Norm Charlton. It was his 7th walk of the season.

"Very pleased with the effort on our side," said Benintendi.

With the victory, the Red Sox upped their record to 22-11.
