Oddballs Absorb 4-1 Home Loss
The Birmingham Barons downed the Ottawa Oddballs, 4-1, at Ottawa Ballpark. Stellar pitching by Mijail Kuester had a lot to do with it. The left-hander, who leads the IL in quality starts with 9, handcuffed his opponent all game. In 7.1 innings, Kuester surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 1. He allowed no runs. Birmingham is in second place in the International League Southwest Division with a record of 35-21.

Making an impact for Birmingham was catcher Marco Menchaca. He drilled a double off Carlos Parra in the top of the third. For the game, Menchaca was 1 for 4 with a double.

"We had a good game plan," Kuester said, "and we were able to execute it."
