Loss Tarnishes Fine Performance by Mirabal
Buffalo designated hitter Andy Mirabal had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Mirabal was 4 for 5 with a home run and 3 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once, even as Gwinnett beat the Bisons, 7-5. Steve Flores picked up the win in relief. Kevin Handrahan took the loss for Buffalo. Mike Mendoza got credit for the save for Gwinnett. It was his 4th of the year.

The result might have been different, had it not been for 26-year old third baseman Jeff Wood. Wood had a 2-run double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Stripers ahead, 6-3. For the game, Wood had 2 doubles and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"I still think this team has room for improvement," Wood told the Gwinnett Herald.

The second-place Stripers sport a record of 46-31.
