Bears Best Goobers in Pitching Duel
Bears Ballpark featured a tense pitchers' duel.

In a low-scoring contest between the Memphis Bears and the Savannah Goobers, Berdell Hanks was the X factor. The Memphis right-hander spearheaded the 2-1 win. Hanks yielded 1 run over 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 1, and struck out 0. His record improves to 1-4.

With scoring opportunities rare, the Bears had to cash in when they had the chance. One such opportunity presented itself in the bottom of the fourth, when right fielder Alphonse Johnson hit a run-scoring single. The single came off Don Richardson and made the score 2-0, Bears. Johnson was 1-3.

"Honestly, I'm not frustrated," said Savannah manager Willie Gatewood. "The effort was great."

The win elevated the Bears to 40-32.
