Black Magic Win, Now 40-40
The Birmingham Black Magic picked up a win at Goobers Ballpark, dropping the Savannah Goobers, 7-3. William Taylor, who is tied for 3rd in the GSL with a 1.09 WHIP, was the difference-maker. In 9 innings, Taylor surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 2 and walking 2. He allowed 3 runs. The Black Magic improved their record to 40-40 with the win over Savannah.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Harry McIntosh? The Birmingham left fielder had a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Black Magic on top, 3-2. For the game, McIntosh had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"When William is on, he can really move the ball around," said Birmingham manager Emmett Tompkins.
