Welp, the Birmingham Barons lost a fourth consecutive game in Montgomery, so the Barons have now fallen out of the Double-A South's postseason picture.
That turns Sunday into a double-elimination tournament for the Biscuits, and a single-elimination game for the Dash. The Barons have to win Game 1 in order to force a Game 2, because if Montgomery wins Game 1, they'll clinch. Both games will be seven innings, and it all starts at 3:33 p.m. CT.
