Suns Win at Asheville, 5-2
The Jacksonville Suns topped the Asheville Moonshiners, 5-2, in Atlantic action at Torrance Grounds. The player of the game was Jacksonville pitcher Ricky Bones. The winning pitcher was Bones, now 12-8. He tossed 9 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 1 and fanning 3. The win puts the Suns at 63-49, while the Moonshiners drop to 66-46.

Jacksonville relied on the bat of Doug Mirabelli to get the win. The catcher ripped a grand slam home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Suns ahead, 5-1. For the game, Mirabelli had 1 double and 1 home run in 4 at-bats.

"You've got to ride the highs and the lows in baseball in order to succeed," Mirabelli told the Jacksonville News. "Right now I'm feeling good, but that don't mean squat for tomorrow."
