Led by Al Ford, the Mississippi Firebirds defeated the Montgomery Biscuits, 7-3. Ford was 2-4 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the Firebirds. Montgomery, at 39-57, has lost 4 straight.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the 14th. With two out, Ford hit a changeup from Gaspard Randi for a grand slam home run. The Firebirds, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"We were able to put some good swings on some pitches," Ford told the Mississippi Citizen.
