The Houston Colt 45s got a sterling performance from left fielder Casey Stengel, but the Birmingham Black Barons still prevailed, 7-5. Stengel went 3-4 with a home run and a triple. He scored 3 times. Lefty Gomez snagged the win in relief. The left-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits over 2.1 innings. He's now 1-1 on the season. Picking up his 1st save was 27-year old right-handed pitcher Juan Rincón.

Andy Pafko contributed to the Birmingham win with a run-scoring single in the bottom of the sixth. For the game, the left fielder had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 3 RBI.

"Nice to see our side come away with the win," Pafko said after the game.

The loss has the Colt 45s at 3-7.
