Black Magic Win at Savannah, 9-3
The Birmingham Black Magic topped the Savannah Goobers, 9-3, with shortstop Bozo Morgan playing a big role. Morgan went 2-4 with a double and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Black Magic in the win. Dud Knox, the winning pitcher, is now 13-13. He went 6.2 innings, allowing 3 runs on 10 hits, while fanning 2 and walking 1. Birmingham goes to 64-76, Savannah to 60-80.

Ralph Billings provided a timely hit. The Birmingham center fielder delivered a bases-clearing triple in the top of the sixth inning to put the Black Magic on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in the game, but he made it count.

Morgan told a Birmingham Observer reporter that he was "gratified" with the win.
