Drooping Black Rifles Lose 6th Straight
|
Atlanta Foxes pitcher Leroy Nealy was in fine form, leading his team past the Richmond Black Rifles, 2-0. Atlanta has 5 straight wins, Richmond 6 straight losses.
Atlanta used the timely hitting of Joseph Morney to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Foxes on top, 1-0. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.
"There's never a lack of effort in our clubhouse. We're willing to do the little things to get the win," Morney told the Atlanta Citizen.
