Birmingham Rallies for 6-5 Victory
Carlos Ponsantiago had a good game, but he could not keep the Kingston Suns from falling, 6-5, to the Birmingham Bears at Ballpark of Birmingham. The Kingston first baseman went 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs in the loss. José Zarate, credited with the win in relief, is now 6-2. He allowed no runs on 2 hits in 2 innings. Birmingham, at 57-65, occupies 4th place in the Amber Waves League Intercontinental.

Yoshinobu Shimizu was the walk-off hero for Birmingham. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Bears right fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"You never take a win for granted in this league," said Shimizu.
