Clippers Eke Out 5-4 Win Versus Louisville
The Columbus Clippers picked up a win at Louisville Slugger Stadium, knocking off the Louisville Bats, 5-4. On the mound for Columbus was right-hander Cristóbal Méndez. He played a key role in the triumph. Méndez, now 9-4, was the winner. In 8.1 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 2, walking 1, and allowing 2 runs. The first-place Clippers have a one-game lead in their division.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Hermengildo Forte? The Columbus right fielder had a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Clippers on top, 3-0. For the game, Forte had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We were the better team," crowed Méndez.
