On Monday, Montgomery punched its postseason ticket, while Bowling Green's slim playoff chances evaporated.

Triple-A Durham Bulls (69-68)

Durham staved off elimination for a day with its 2-1 win over Gwinnett. Corey Brown led off the second with a double and scored on Jake Elmore's single, and Mayo Acosta's sacrifice fly plated what proved to be the winning run. Bradin Hagens had to work out of a bases-loaded jam in the third and gave up just a run in the fifth and finished with four hits and three walks allowed in 6 2/3 innings with no strikeouts.
