MONTGOMERY, Ala. - Taylor Motter's two-run double in the seventh inning was the difference in the Biscuits'(1-1) comeback 5-4 win over the Birmingham Barons (1-1) on Friday night at Riverwalk Stadium.
The Biscuits entered the seventh inning trailing 4-2. Richie Shaffer worked a full count then crushed a solo blast off of Nestor Molina to make it a one-run game. Three batters later, with runners on second and third, Motter drove in the tying and go-ahead runs with a double down the line to give the Biscuits a 5-4 lead.
