Both teams had their chances, but the Columbus Red Birds eventually prevailed.

In the 6-5 Columbus win over Dam Site, the impact of Eduardo Martínez was substantial. Martínez, who is on pace for 112 RBI this season, went 2 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. Rickey Gentry, credited with the win, is now 9-9. He allowed no runs on 1 hit.

Martínez had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the eighth. On a 0-1 fastball from José Aguilar, he banged a solo home run to right, giving the Red Birds a 6-5 lead. It was the 38th home run of the year for Martínez.

Martínez told a Columbus Citizen reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.

Columbus improves to 78-49 with the win. They lead their division by 9 games.
