John Lindsey delivered a one-out single in the bottom of the 10th inning to give the Zephyrs a 4-3 victory over Albuquerque Tuesday night. Lindsey was 0-for-4 and had stranded five runners on base before providing New Orleans with their first walk-off hit of the season.

The Zephyrs jumped out to an early lead when Michael Ryan drove in Manny Mayorson with a single, and Cameron Maybin was able to score on a fielding error by Jovanny Rosario in the bottom of the first inning. Andy Gonzalez drove Ryan home later in the inning to give the Z's a 3-0 lead.

Cameron Maybin led the way for the Zephyr offense by going 4-for-5 with a run scored. Gookie Dawkins, Andy Gonzalez and Manny Mayorson added two hits each for the Z's, who improved their record to 21-31 on the year.

John Koronka held the Isotopes to one run on three hits in seven innings, and left the game with the team leading 3-1. Chris Mobley could not hold the lead, allowing two runs in the top of the eighth inning to tie the game.

Nate Field and Levale Speigner each pitched an inning of scoreless relief, with Speigner (3-1) earning the victory. The two teams will play again Wednesday night with Willie Collazo (LHP) facing off against James McDonald (RHP).
