Durham Bulls Edge Duke, 6-1, in Exhibition Contest

DURHAM, N.C. – In the second edition of “The Battle in The Bull City”, The Durham Bulls claimed a 6-1 victory over the Duke baseball team Tuesday evening at Durham Bulls Athletic Park.

The Blue Devils and the Bulls, Triple A affiliate of the Tampa Bay Rays, squared off in a seven-inning affair, marking the second-ever exhibition contest between the DBAP’s two denizens. The matchup leads into the Bulls’ season opener April 4, as the ball club travels to Charlotte to take on the Knights.

“They’ve got a really good club,” said head coach Chris Pollard.
