Caterpillars Post 8-3 Win Over Albany
The Peoria Caterpillars beat the Albany Firebirds, 8-3, at Capital Grounds. Peoria third baseman Matthew Tucker had the hot bat. He was 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Alex Jimenez went 6 innings for Peoria to pick up the win. The right-hander was charged with 2 runs. He scattered 8 hits, while walking 3 and striking out 5. His record improves to 7-12. The setback makes Albany 63-55.

With Peoria leading 1-0 in the top of the second, Tucker hit a fastball from Bill Oestreich for a 2-run home run. It was his 7th home run of the season and put the Caterpillars ahead, 3-0.

"Not the sexiest win," said Caterpillars manager Scott Andrews, "but I'll take it."
