Colts Topple Barons with Late Rally
Louisville starter Ray Ball pitched effectively against the New York Barons at Derby Grounds. The right-hander led his team to a win, 4-3. Louisville is still hoping to get on a roll. The win is just their 6th in 16 games.

The decisive blow was delivered by Ken Duncan in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a 2-run double off 20-year old left-handed pitcher Tom Samples to win the game for Louisville. The home crowd went nuts.

"That last inning was electric," Ball said.
