Columbus, GA- The Catfish bullpen came through with another big performance Tuesday night, as they pitched five innings of shutout ball in a 6-3 win over the Rome Braves. Rome began the game by scoring one run in each of the first three innings off of Glenn Gibson, as the lefty continued to struggle as he had in his first two starts.

Columbus would rally for three runs in the bottom of the third inning on a single from Shawn Williams, followed by a walk to Omar Luna, and a double by Emeel Salem to even the score. Columbus would tack on another run in the sixth, and two in the eighth to make the score 6-3. The bullpen then closed out the game in the ninth with the third save of the season from Travis Risser.
