White Sox Lose to Firebirds in Walk-Off
The Atlanta Firebirds faced a tough opponent in Chicago pitcher José Castaneda, but did just enough to pull out the victory at SunTrust Park by a final score of 7-6. Castaneda went 6.2 innings and allowed 5 runs. The Firebirds sport a record of 49-77.

Miguel Andujar was the walk-off hero for Atlanta. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Firebirds shortstop hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"It's a thrill to get that kind of win," Andujar said.
