Catfish Open Homestand With Win

After dropping 4 of six on a road trip, the Columbus Catfish returned home Saturday night with a 4-3 win over the Rome Braves. The Catfish were led by Desmond Jennings, who drove in 3 of the 4 Catfish runs with a 3-for-3 night at the plate:

Jennings' two-run homer in the seventh inning off reliever James Curtis (2-4) gave the Catfish (13-9) a 4-3 lead. He also had an RBI bunt single in the third.

Joey Callender ripped a pair of doubles and scored twice and Ryan Royster collected three hits and a walk for Columbus.

Reliever Matt Falk (3-0) allowed a run on three hits, striking out two without a walk in three innings for the win. Ryan Reid pitched around three walks and fanned two in two hitless frames for his seventh save.

The win leaves the Catfish in 3rd place, 1-1/2 games behind Augusta and Asheville.
