Behind a solid performance from right fielder Richard Fields, the Louisville Redbirds defeated the Seattle Rainiers, 9-3. Fields was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Redbirds. Louisville, with the win, climbs to 24-62.

With Louisville leading 1-0 in the top of the third, Fields hit a slider from Jim Palmer for a 2-run home run. It was his 18th home run of the season and put the Redbirds ahead, 3-0.

After the game, Fields refused to speak to a reporter for the Louisville Daily. "You've accused me of throwing teammates under the bus," he said. "So, excuse me if I decline to answer your questions."
