The Birmingham Barons faced a tough opponent in Jacksonville pitcher Chris Cantú, but still scratched out a win at Baseball Grounds of Jacksonville by a final score of 3-2 in 10 innings. Cantú went 5 innings and allowed 2 runs. Losses have been rare for the Suns, who are now 10-4.

Kevin Perry came through with a big-time hit for Birmingham. The catcher smacked a solo home run in the top of the tenth inning to give his team the lead, 3-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

Perry said his team "played with focus."
