Durham, NC - Tristan Peters singled home the game's only run in the fifth inning as Durham defeated Memphis 1-0 at the DBAP on Tuesday night.
Peters one-out hit against Memphis' Gordon Graceffo (L, 4-4) scored Rene Pinto from third to give the Bulls (19-27) a 1-0 led. In the seventh inning, Peters made a spectacular diving catch in left-center field to rob Jose Fermin of extra bases.
