Colonels Win, 8-2, at Columbus
In baseball, each game is unique. This one was no different.

The Louisville Colonels tallied a win at Recreation Park II, throttling the Columbus Solons, 8-2. Starting pitcher Mike Jones was a big reason for his team's success. Jones went the distance for Louisville. He gave up 2 runs on 7 hits.

The Colonels benefited from an error in the top of the sixth inning. Louisville was leading 3-2 when Sammy Strang hit a 2-run single that was misplayed. It put Louisville in front, 5-2.

"We had a good game plan," Jones said, "and we were able to execute it."

Louisville, with the win, is 2-0.
