Espinoza Hits 2 home runs in Firebirds Win
A 5-RBI performance from the 19-year old second baseman José Espinoza helped the Danville Firebirds beat the Johnson City Cardinals, 15-6. Shawn Moore, now 3-2, was credited with the win in 1.1 innings of relief. He allowed no runs on no hits, while striking out 2 and walking 1. The victory gives the Firebirds a record of 18-14.

Walt Fowler was 1 for 5 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2 for Danville. The 21-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the top of the ninth. With no one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 6-6 tie with a run-scoring walk off Jerry Beck. It was his 2nd walk of the season.

"Their at-bats were really impressive against us," said losing manager Paul McAnulty.
