Bears Drop Tornadoes, 11-4, with Late Score
Bears catcher Alfonso Fernández put his stamp on his team's 11-4 win over the Drumright Tornadoes. Fernández went 2 for 5 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for Birmingham in the contest. At 40-49, the Bears are currently last in the Amber Waves League Intercontinental.

The game was at a stalemate until designated hitter Yoshihito Kaneko came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Drumright pitcher Joe Walker, he hit a first pitch fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Birmingham on top, 5-4.

Kaneko told a Birmingham Observer reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.
