Railroaders Get One-Run Win at Alabama
Fans watched the Pennsylvania Railroaders and the Alabama Yellowhammers fight to the finish.

The Alabama Yellowhammers got a superb performance from first baseman Curt Palácios, but the Pennsylvania Railroaders still won the game, 7-6. Palácios was 2-2 with 2 home runs and 2 walks. Pennsylvania starter Bernie Custello was credited with the win after throwing 111 pitches over 6 innings. His record now stands at 6-8. Lysander Kalergi was credited with the save, his 25th in 29 tries.

Jeff Braswell's at-bat in the top of the eighth was significant for the Railroaders. Coming to the plate with the bases empty and Pennsylvania leading 6-5, the Railroaders left fielder hit a solo home run.

In postgame comments to the Pennsylvania Chronicle, Braswell said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."

The Yellowhammers, at 54-50, have lost 4 in a row.
