Birmingham Breaks Through for First Win in League Championship Series; Now Trails 2-1
|
The Birmingham Black Magic got a strong game from starter Tom Smith, but it was some clutch hitting that ultimately delivered the win.
The Black Magic took the 5-4 win over the Atlanta Foxes in Game 3 of the League Championship Series in a 9th inning walk-off today. The win capped off a fine outing for the left-handed Smith. Smith threw 8.0 innings allowing 4 runs in the win, which allowed the Black Magic to narrow their deficit to 1-2 in the best-of-7 series.
The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Birmingham pinch hitter Willie Grant, facing Nolan Napier, had a run-scoring walk. It gave the Black Magic the 5-4 win.
"We'll enjoy this win," said Grant. "But there's more we hope to accomplish."
The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Black Magic Ballpark in Birmingham.
