Goobers Raise Rally Flag, Beat Birmingham, 7-5
The Savannah Goobers downed the Birmingham Black Magic, 7-5, at Black Magic Ballpark. Red Gillespie led the way, going 3-for-4 for Savannah. Savannah reliever Red Mathis snagged the win, upping his record to 2-0. Bill Wiggins shouldered the loss. Picking up the save was Danforth Hartley, his 7th.

Savannah used the timely hitting of Robert Jones to seize the win. The left fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Goobers on top, 6-5. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Our goal is to improve each and every day," Gillespie told the Savannah News.

Their 61-45 record puts the Goobers first in the Great Southern Dixie.
