Colonels Flatten Solons, 11-2
Rain could not dampen the pregame excitement of Columbus fans. But the subsequent loss, and a disappointing one at that, to the Colonels had to.

Louisville starter Chris Paff kept the Columbus offense under clamps, while his team rolled to victory, 11-2. The Solons, at 16-30, have lost 4 straight games.

With Louisville leading 2-0 in the top of the second, Paff hit a 2-run single off Columbus hurler Larry McKeon. It was the 18th hit of the season for Paff and put his team ahead, 4-0.

"You can't sugarcoat this one," said Columbus manager Fraley Rogers. "We got flat-out beat."
