Pivotal Game 5 Goes to Host Colts, 7-2
Leave it to the veteran.

The Buffalo Colts got a great start from 35-year-old left-hander Eli Taylor, who earned player of the game honors today as Buffalo won the contest 7-2 at Riverside Park. Taylor threw 9 innings of 7-hit ball in the win, which allowed the Buffalo to grab a 3-2 lead in the best-of-9 series.

In his 145-pitch effort, Taylor allowed 2 earned runs on 7 hits over 9 innings. He walked 1 and struck out 6.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Taylor.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Riverside Park in Buffalo. Slated to start are Isiah Camp for Cincinnati and Bill Kerr for Buffalo.
