Bulls Clip Hammers, 5-4
The Durham Bulls racked up a win at Durham Bulls Athletic Park, bumping off the Gwinnett Hammers, 5-4. Ben Lake, who started for Durham, pitched effectively for his team. The South Division-leading Bulls are 53-40.

Had Artie Johnston not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 3rd, Johnston hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the Bulls.

"We found a way to get it done," Johnston said.
