Barons fans were treated to an exciting walk-off win.

Tennessee got a valiant performance from pitcher Travis Banks, but it wasn't enough to beat the Birmingham Barons. Birmingham won the game, 5-4. Banks threw 7.1 innings allowing 1 runs for the losing team. Kyle Barnum notched the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 3.1 innings. His record now sits at 2-0.

Matt Gorski was the walk-off hero for Birmingham. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Barons center fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"This place went bonkers at the end," Gorski said.

The win puts Birmingham at 75-64 this season.
