Big Day for Aaron in 7-6 Black Barons Win
The Birmingham Black Barons downed the Indianapolis ABCs, 7-6, at Crosley Field. Hank Aaron led the way, going 2-for-4 for Birmingham. The winner was Greg Maddux, who threw 86 pitches over 7.1 innings. The right-hander was charged with 4 runs on 6 hits. The save went to Juan Rincón, number 5 for him.

With Birmingham leading 1-0 in the top of the third, Aaron hit a fastball from Willie Mitchell for a 3-run home run. It was his 17th home run of the season and put the Black Barons ahead, 4-0.

"We found a way to get it done," Aaron said.

The win puts Birmingham at 16-31.
