Moonshiners Win Thriller, 11-8
With catcher Kevin L Brown leading the charge, the Asheville Moonshiners defeated the Jacksonville Suns, 11-8, at Torrance Grounds. Brown was 2 for 5 with a home run, while adding 5 RBI and scoring once. The Suns fall to 6-7 and continue their uneasy start to the 1997 season.

Brown had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the ninth. On a 1-1 slider from Mark Dewey, he banged a 3-run home run to left-center, giving the Moonshiners a 11-8 lead. It was the 2nd home run of the year for Brown.

"We'll pop the top on a cold one and get back to work tomorrow," Brown said.
