Dale Thayer recorded two outs while allowing one baserunner.
Montgomery 4 Birmingham 13
Oh deary me. Desmond Jennings went 0-3, Rhyne Hughes 0-5, and new addition Jason Perry went 2-3 with a double and a walk. Rehabbing Shawn RIggans was the DH and recorded a hit in four plate appearances. Aneury Rodriguez pitched five with four walks, four Ks, and a homerun allowed. Michael Wlodarczyk is the one to blame for the nasty final score. In two innings Wloddy walked four and allowed five hits/seven earned runs. Eduardo Morlan pitched a perfect inning while striking one out.
