He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Daniel Hatchell went 10 innings for Charlotte to pick up the win. The right-hander was charged with 5 runs. He scattered 11 hits, while walking 0 and striking out 7. His record improves to 7-5. The second-place Hornets have a record of 56-57.

Charlotte won the game in the bottom of the tenth inning. With one out and Ken Clay on the mound for Calgary, second baseman Chico Ruiz hit a dramatic grand slam home run, bringing Hornets fans to their feet.

"Enough drama for you?" winked Hornets manager Chad Iles after the game.
