BayBears Capture Close Win
Fans witnessed a whale of a game between the Mobile BayBears and Birmingham Barons.

Héctor Ochoa pitched well, but his team, the Birmingham Barons, still dropped a 3-2 decision to the Mobile BayBears at Hank Aaron Stadium. Milo Svela snagged the win in relief. He goes to 3-0 on the season. Héctor Ochoa suffered the loss.

Mobile took a 3-2 lead on António Manuel's 5th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Manuel hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Birmingham pitcher Jorge Santiago visibly frustrated.

In postgame remarks, Manuel said: "To all who've been doubting my effort -- I hope they saw this game."

Mobile is now 19-17. Birmingham is 18-19.
