Foxes Squelch Goobers Offense in Shutout Win
Starting pitcher Leroy Nealy was a major factor in the 5-0 Atlanta Foxes triumph over the Savannah Goobers. The Foxes improved their record to 31-34 by beating Savannah.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Benny Carter? The Atlanta shortstop had a 2-run single in the top of the fourth inning to put the Foxes on top, 2-0. For the game, Carter had 1 double and 2 singles in 3 at-bats.

Nealy called the win "a team effort."
