Iowa Hangs 6-3 Loss on Nashville
The Iowa Cubs put one in the win column with an opening day 6-3 triumph over the Nashville Sounds. The crowd at Principal Park watched Jeff Branch put on a fine performance. The winning pitcher was Branch, now 1-0. He tossed 6.1 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 3 and fanning 9.

Iowa shortstop Ron Knapp contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the sixth. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 2nd hit of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 3-1.

Cubs manager Gera Alvarez raved about Branch after the game. "I thought Jeff was 'lights out.'"
