Late Rally Seals 6-4 Win for Clowns
The Indianapolis Clowns had to overcome a fine effort from Nashville pitcher Matt Primeau to win, 6-4, at Johnny Cash Field. Primeau went 6.2 innings and allowed 3 runs. The win makes Indianapolis 24-29.

Garrett Thomason delivered a big hit for Indianapolis. The third baseman drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Clowns ahead, 6-4. It was his only hit, but it was a beauty.

"Good, gritty kind of win," said Clowns manager Matt Mays.
