Solons Top Cleveland, 5-4
Columbus left fielder Darby O'Brien played a vital role in his team's 5-4 triumph over Cleveland. He went 5 for 5 with a double and 4 singles for Columbus. Columbus starter John Kirby was credited with the win after throwing 117 pitches over 9 innings. His record now stands at 7-13. The Solons now have a record of 47-86.

Dave Orr was the walk-off hero for Columbus. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Solons first baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Winning in the last at-bat, there's nothing else like it," said O'Brien.
