Bears Rally to Eke Out Win
In a close game at Bears Ballpark, the Memphis Bears edged the Chattanooga Nickajacks, 4-3, in 12 innings. Memphis first baseman Arthur Rudolph stood apart with his performance. He went 3-6 with a double and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. The win puts Memphis at 36-31 this season.

Batting in the bottom of the 12th, slick-fielding center fielder James Bell had a real shot to win the game. Chattanooga pitcher David Robinson was determined not to let it happen. But with two outs, Bell hit a run-scoring single. The Bears had a walk-off triumph.

Bell told a local reporter: "My job is to go out and play as hard as I can."
