Steeldogs Topple Looters as Rivera Shines
The Birmingham Steeldogs stymied the New Orleans Looters, 7-2, at The Bayou at Heineken Field. José Rivera, who had a good day at the plate, was named player of the game. He hit 2 home runs, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice for Birmingham. Pete Cook got the win, improving to 1-1. He worked 6 innings, giving up 2 runs on 7 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 3. The Looters, now 11-3, continue their slow start.

Rivera contributed a big hit, a 2-run home run, for Birmingham in the top of the fourth. With his team trailing 2-1, Rivera took a fastball from Marty Bradford and stroked the home run to right. His 3rd home run of the season allowed the Steeldogs to leap in front, 3-2.

"Good win for us," said Rivera. "We'll strap it on and go after the next one."
