Yellowhammers Get Close Win Over Warhawks
The Yellowhammers had to overcome a fine effort from <Illinois:team#74> pitcher <Jesús García:player#8107> to grab a narrow 3-2 win at Todd Berry Memorial Field. García went 7 innings and allowed 1 earned run. The winner was <Jermaine Dunn:player#6643> in relief. His record improves to 3-3. <T.J. Stone:player#11591> took the loss. <Paço Estaa:player#6494> notched his 13th save in 16 chances.

Runs were hard to come by in this one. <Josh Holliday:player#3905>'s at-bat with one out in the top of the ninth, therefore, was critical. The Alabama pinch hitter hit a run-scoring single, to put his team on top, 3-2.

"There are no moral victories," said losing manager <Paul Nicholls:manager#44>.

With the win over Illinois, the Yellowhammers improved to 50-67.
