Foxes Win in Glorious Fashion, 3-2
Both teams had their opportunities, but in the end, the Atlanta Foxes got the win.

Atlanta Foxes left-hander Red Miller pitched a good game against the Richmond Black Rifles at Foxes Ballpark, leading his team to victory, 3-2. Bob Keeler was the winner in relief. His record is now 1-0. The losing pitcher was Russell Macklin.

Batting in the bottom of the ninth, slugging left fielder Lorenza Garry had a real shot to win the game. Richmond pitcher Russell Macklin was determined not to let it happen. But with no outs, Garry hit a run-scoring single. The Foxes had a walk-off triumph.

"I like what I saw today," said Atlanta manager Edward Joseph, "and I can't wait to get back out there and do it again."

Richmond has now lost 4 in a row.
