Bobby Barnes was a major factor in the 8-7 Little Rock win over Greensboro. The Golden Gophers first baseman was 2 for 4 with a home run and a double. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. Greensboro is 8-9 after the defeat.

In the first inning, Barnes had a 3-run home run for Little Rock. It was his 5th home run of the season and put the Golden Gophers on top, 3-0.

"We were the better team today. Maybe that won't be the case next game, but we'll enjoy it for now," Barnes told the Little Rock Observer.
