Firebirds Victors, 12-4, at Birmingham
The rain came, as predicted, but the Mississippi Firebirds and Birmingham Barons were able to complete their ballgame.

A 4-RBI performance from Ben Stevenson helped the Mississippi Firebirds beat the Birmingham Barons, 12-4. Mississippi pitcher Gilberto Valéncia got the win. He's now 1-1. Rubén Romero was tagged with the loss.

With Mississippi leading 2-1 in the top of the fifth, Stevenson hit a fastball from Rubén Romero for a grand slam home run. It was his 2nd home run of the season and put the Firebirds ahead, 6-1.

"Just glad I could help us get a win," said Stevenson.

The Barons, now 5-9, continue their inauspicious start.
