Shanafelt Helps Colts Run Win Streak to 5
Charlie Shanafelt had a 4-RBI game, during Louisville's 9-8 triumph over the Philadelphia Unions. Shanafelt contributed 3 singles and 1 home run to the cause. Kip Hereford claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. His record stands at 9-8. The first-place Colts have won 5 in a row.

Larry Buckley was 1 for 3 with a walk. He scored 2 times for Louisville. The fan favorite had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and a runner on 3rd, he broke a 8-8 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Rick Robertson. It was his 84th RBI of the season.

"Enjoyed this one," Shanafelt told the Louisville Bulletin. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
