Gibson Goes Wild, But Braves Win
The Orlando Sun Rays got a superb performance from designated hitter Kirk Gibson. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Atlanta. The Braves won the game, 8-6. In spite of the loss, Gibson was named the player of the game. He went 2 for 3 with 2 home runs and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. With the win, Atlanta elevates its record to 13-11.

The Braves got an important contribution from first baseman Howard Johnson, who in the top of the fifth stroked a first pitch fastball into left for a 3-run home run. It was his 12th home run of the season and put the Braves ahead, 6-5.

"It feels good to get this one," Johnson told the Atlanta Daily News.
