MONTGOMERY, AL - In the bottom of the 12th, Tres Barrera hopped a ball off the backside of the mound and into center field to send the Montgomery Biscuits (31-29) to a 2-1 win over the Birmingham Barons (32-27) on Thursday night at Riverwalk Stadium.

Barrera provided a key defensive play and recorded both RBI in the win. In the 11th, Barrera picked off the runner at third base to keep a run off the board.

Neither club scored over the first nine innings. The Birmingham pitching staff combined to strike out 18 batters. Jack Hartman pitched a scoreless ninth inning behind Davitt.

Each club scored a run in the 10th to make it 1-1. Barrera singled through the right side the tie the game, before back-to-back strikeouts ended the inning. Hunter Stovall and Kevin Boles were ejected during the final two at-bats of the inning. Barrera picked off a runner at third base in the 11th to set up another opportunity. The Biscuits loaded the bases with one out, but back-to-back strikeouts again ended the frame.

After Jonny Cuevas picked off the runner at second base in the 12th, Barrera came through with the hit to finish the game at 2-1.
