Foxes Solve Black Magic, 6-2
The Atlanta Foxes topped the Birmingham Black Magic, 6-2, in Great Southern action at Foxes Ballpark. The game was highlighted by the performance of Atlanta pitcher Wesley Smith. Smith got the win, improving to 20-4. He gave up 8 hits and walked 1 over 9 innings. He allowed 2 runs. Atlanta raised its record to 72-43 with the win.

Pee Wee Nelson had a big run-scoring triple for the Foxes in the bottom of the third inning. With Atlanta leading 1-0 and a runner on 2nd, he got a fastball from William Taylor, who is tied for 2nd in the GSL with a 1.52 ERA, and swatted a triple to left-center. It was his 23rd triple of the season, and more importantly, it put the Foxes ahead, 2-0.

"We need better swings, better at-bats," said losing manager Emmett Tompkins.
