Bats Score Late to Beat Empire, 4-3
The Austin Bats topped the New York Empire, 4-3, in Heartland League action at Gateway Field. The game was highlighted by the performance of Austin pitcher Gus Russum. Russum, the winner, moves to 7-9. He threw 7 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 6 and giving up 1 walk. Gavin Weir was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 18 of 20 save opportunities.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Jazz Albright? The 24-year old first baseman Albright stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to put Austin up, 4-3. For the game, he was 2 for 4, including 1 double and 1 single.

"Nice win for us," said Albright. "Now we'll go after the next one."

With the win, Austin upped its record to 55-48.
