Starting pitcher Artie Hall took care of business, helping the Danville Firebirds stifle the Greeneville Astros, 4-2. Rudy Thomas locked down his 12th save. The losing skid has reached 6 games for Greeneville.

Danville used the clutch hitting of Francis López to capture the win. The designated hitter drilled a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to give the Firebirds the lead, 4-2. For the game, López had 2 singles and 1 double in 4 at-bats.

"I like what I saw today," said Danville manager Desmond Jennings, "and I can't wait to get back out there and do it again."
