The Birmingham Black Barons defeated the Homestead Grays, 6-4, at Forbes Field. Birmingham third baseman Eddie Mathews had a superb performance. He went 2 for 4 with a home run and a double. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Juan Rincón was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 9 of 13 save opportunities. The Black Barons go to 27-42 with the win.

Mathews had a game-changing double in the top of the eighth. On a full count fastball from Michael Jackson, he banged a 2-run double to center, giving the Black Barons a 5-4 lead. It was the 6th double of the year for Mathews.

"I know we have our doubters," said Homestead manager Daniel Makonnen. "But I still have high hopes for this team."
