Clippers Down Barons, 8-0
Columbus pitcher Noah Kimble had a large part in his team beating the Birmingham Barons, 8-0. The right-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. With the victory, the Clippers record stands at 40-34.

Columbus used a clutch at-bat from Aaron Whaley to capture the win. The shortstop hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Clippers ahead, 4-0. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

Said losing manager Steve Anderson: "We need to play with more of an edge."
