DURHAM, N.C. - Jacob Berry drove in two runs on Friday, but the Durham Bulls hit three home runs en route to a 4-2 win over the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp at Durham Bulls Athletic Park.

With the Jumbo Shrimp (59-40, 12-12) ahead 1-0, Jamie Westbrook led off the fifth with a long home run to tie the game. Two batters later, Curtis Mead singled and Bob Seymour smashed a two-run homer to put the Bulls (60-38, 15-8) ahead 3-1.

In the sixth, Tristan Peters added a long ball to make it 4-1.

Jacksonville's last chance came in the seventh. Deyvison De Los Santos led off with a single before stealing second. After a strikeout, Joe Mack and Maximo Acosta each walked to load the bases. Berry cashed in a run with an RBI ground out before Dalvy Rosario drew a free pass to reload the bases. However, pinch-hitter Rob Brantly struck out to end the threat at 4-2.

Paul Gervase worked 2.0 perfect innings from there to pick up his fourth save.

The game was initially scoreless until the fifth. Matt Mervis singled and stole second to jumpstart the inning. After a pair of outs, Berry's RBI double score the game's first run.
