The Albany Firebirds picked up a win at Capital Grounds, downing the State College Swallowtails, 6-3. On the mound for Albany was right-hander Jeff Kappel, who played a pivotal role in the win. With the win, the Firebirds improved to 63-84.

The Firebirds benefited from a costly error in the bottom of the second. With Larry Capobianco at bat and Albany leading 1-0, the State College miscue allowed Albany to plate 1 and take the lead, 2-0.

"The key at this level is throwing strike one," said Kappel. "Successful pitchers do it."
