Goobers, Jones Blank Foxes
The Savannah Goobers shut out the Atlanta Foxes, 9-0, behind the strong pitching of Archie Jones. Jones surrendered only 7 hits in recording the complete-game victory, and struck out 4.

Following the last out, Jones appeared to celebrate a little too boisterously for Atlanta manager Edward Joseph, who could be seen scolding the famously outspoken right-hander as the clubs left the field. Jones's own manager then intervened with some words for his counterpart.

The Foxes skipper would not comment on the exchange but, at the Goobers press conference, Jones confirmed that it was regarding the celebration.

"He basically told me I was being a lousy winner," Jones said.

"And I told him he was being a lousy loser," Savannah manager Willie Gatewood added.

Checking out his stats for the season, Jones has registered 2 wins and 4 losses in 8 starts, posted a 4.91 ERA, and struck out 12 batters in 55 innings.
