Bixby comes through for Cats

With teams biting at their tail for the last playoff spot, the Tigers came together to play one of their best games of the year against the hard-hitting Reds.
The Tigers broke through first, building a 4-0 lead, but it didn't take long for the Reds to flip that and take the lead by one with a 5 run third. Bixby held tough in the frame, limiting the damage and giving the Tigers a chance to come back. With the help of multiple RBI games by Troy Combs, Sean Donnellan and Allen Wilson, and clutch defensive plays by Jerry Aebi and Chris Bishop, the Tigers jumped back ahead and held on for the W. Multi-hit performances were had by Stefan Marks, Combs, Bishop, Donnellan, Wilson, Tim O'Hair and Mike Maglione.
