McDonald, Colt .45s Too Much for Redbirds
The Houston Colt .45s stopped the Louisville Redbirds, 10-6, at Louisville Slugger Field. The Colt .45s got a big game from Virgil McDonald, who went 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 6. The first-place Colt .45s have a one-game lead in their division.

In the top of the first of a scoreless game, McDonald hit a 3-run home run to put his team ahead.

"Nervous? No," said McDonald. "It was my time to shine."
