Columbus drew first blood jumping out to an early lead in the first inning scoring 5 runners on 3 hits. That early run support was enough for Dave Lapoint and Columbus. Columbus had 11 hits for the night while Portland had 4. Charlie Hough(0-1) was tagged with the loss. He allowed a few too many baserunners giving up 7 hits and 5 walks in 4 innings.
