Redbirds Upend Eddies, 4-2
Louisville Redbirds starter Chris Nichols was in a rhythm all game. He led his team to a win over the Iron City Eddies, 4-2. In 7 innings, Nichols surrendered 10 hits, while striking out 9 and walking 0. He allowed 2 runs. Martín Villanueva earned the save for Louisville, his 9th of the year.

Louisville used a well-timed hit by Reggie Jackson to capture the win. The center fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Redbirds ahead, 3-2. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

When asked about his performance after the game, Nichols said: "Like everyone else, I'm just doing my job."

Louisville, at 47-79, sits in 11th place in the Ursa Division.
