The Gwinnett Firebirds got a stellar performance from pitcher Kevin Key, who handcuffed the Norfolk offense en route to a win, 4-2, at Coolray Field. T.J. Crane got the save, his 1st in 1 chances. The win elevated the Firebirds to 52-32.

The Firebirds got a big at-bat from first baseman Jesús Ibarra. For the game, Ibarra went 2-4 with a double, while adding 2 RBI. In the bottom of the second, with runners on 2nd and 3rd, he stroked a 2-run double. His 19th double of the season gave Gwinnett a 2-1 lead.

Key pitched well, despite being a bit under the weather. "To be honest, I was sick before the game," he said. "Just a stomach bug."
