MADISON, AL - The Montgomery Biscuits used a five-run fifth inning and three home runs to power past the Rocket City Trash Pandas, 11-2, on Friday night at Toyota Field.

Montgomery (34-33) responded after falling behind early when Raudi Rodriguez launched a solo home run in the first inning to give Rocket City (34-32) a 1-0 lead.

The Biscuits answered immediately in the second. Kenny Piper lined a solo homer to left-center field, his eighth of the season, to even the score at 1-1.

Rodriguez struck again in the fourth inning, belting his second solo home run of the night to put the Trash Pandas back in front, 2-1.

Jadher Areinamo followed with a two-run single to center field, scoring Vellojin and Horvath to give the Biscuits their first lead. Later in the inning, Will Simpson lined a two-run single to left, plating Taylor and Areinamo before Daniel Vellojin drew a bases-loaded walk to force home Xavier Isaac and extend the advantage to 6-2.

The Biscuits added to the lead in the sixth when Simpson crushed a three-run homer to left-center field, scoring Areinamo and Isaac to make it 9-2.
