Baran Shines in 7-3 Aurora Win
The skies opened up and the rain fell at Suns Field.

The Aurora Suns beat the Mesa Razor Sharks, 7-3, at Suns Field. The Suns got a fine performance from center fielder Sean Baran, who was 3 for 3 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 3 and driving in 2. Arturo Feliciano, credited with the win in relief, is now 2-0. He allowed no runs on no hits in 0.2 innings.

Aurora took a 5-3 lead on Baran's 3rd home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which he hit off Heriberto Hernandez in the bottom of the seventh, propelled Aurora to the win.

"It never gets old," said Baran. "Winning, that is."

Aurora has now reeled off 6 straight wins.
