A 4-RBI performance from designated hitter Omari Afolabi, who is tied for 9th in the in runs scored with 68, led the Rome Braves to a win over the Kannapolis Intimidators, 8-6. Rome reliever Juan Balbuena picked up the win to move to 6-0. Humberto Alarid suffered the loss. Jorge Coronado earned the save, his 3rd, for the Braves.

The game was at a stalemate until pinch hitter Tim Darling came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Kannapolis pitcher Humberto Alarid, he hit a 0-2 slider for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Rome on top, 5-4.

"I like seeing our guys get a return on what they've put in," said Rome manager Federico Giordani.

The Braves, at 97-27, have a comfortable 18-game lead in their division.
