Eagles Win, Anderson belts 2 home runs
The Indianapolis Eagles handed the Cincinnati Royals a 6-3 defeat at The Castle. Left Fielder Jim Anderson starred for Indianapolis. He was 3-5 with 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. The winner in relief was James Gibson. He is now 2-1. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 1.2 innings. Earning his 7th save for Indianapolis was Vinny Ceja.

Indianapolis used the timely hitting of Henry Cortez to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Eagles on top, 6-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I was making good contact tonight," said Anderson.

With the win, the Eagles improved to 31-21.
