Utley Excels, But Black Barons Win
The Birmingham Black Barons had to overcome a big game from Memphis third baseman Chase Utley to leave Elvis Stadium with a victory. And they did, winning 12-9. Utley hit 2 home runs. He scored 4 runs and drove in 2. Birmingham reliever Jose R Alvarez picked up the win, upping his record to 7-4. Carlos A Diaz shouldered the loss. The victory gives Birmingham a record of 57-49.

Birmingham used the clutch hitting of Vic Power to capture the win. The pinch hitter drilled a grand slam home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Black Barons ahead, 12-9. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a big one.

"It's nice to come out on top today," said Power.
