Croft, Braves Wallop Grasshoppers in Game 5 of WCS
The Rome Braves have closed some of the gap between themselves and the series-leading Greensboro Grasshoppers, winning, 8-2, at State Mutual Stadium. Braves shortstop Lee Croft went 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. The win cuts the deficit facing the Braves to 3-2 in the best-of-7 Wild Card Series.

Tied up with the Grasshoppers in the bottom of the fourth inning, the Braves got a boost from catcher Dionis Valentin. With the bases loaded, Valentin saw a 1-1 slider from Dave Keithley and hit a 2-run single to break the stalemate and put Rome on top, 3-1.

Said losing manager Bryce Scott: "Give the Braves credit. They took advantage of our mistakes."

The next game is set to be played for Friday, September 24th , 2060 at NewBridge Bank Park in Greensboro.
