Rapiers Get Win, Extend Streak to 4
The Durham Rapiers had to overcome a big game from Akron left fielder Ernest Franks to leave Rapiers Ballpark with a 9-4 victory. Franks went 2 for 3 with a double and a walk. The winner was César Morales, who threw 100 pitches over 5.1 innings. The right-hander was charged with 4 runs on 7 hits. The Rapiers, at 21-14, have now won 4 straight.

The game hit a turning point in the bottom of the fifth inning, when the Rapiers were trailing 4-3. Fernando Urby delivered a two-out 2-run home run for Durham, catapulting his team into the lead.

Urby expressed little emotion after the game. "Every game we win now," he said, "is one less win we'll need to get in the end."
