Atlanta Takes 3-1 Lead in League Championship Series
The Atlanta Foxes are in great position for a trip to the World Series, thanks to the well-worn arm of Jimmy Jones.

The 38-year-old Atlanta right-hander pitched the Foxes to victory, 3-2, at Black Magic Ballpark today. Jones threw a complete game against the Birmingham Black Magic to leave Atlanta one game away from a championship appearance. The team now leads the best-of-7 series, 3 games to 1.

Contributing to the Atlanta win was Tom Lindsay. In the top of the seventh, the 26-year old center fielder had a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2, the Foxes in front.

"Our guys are never satisfied," said Atlanta manager Red "Fox" Williams.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Black Magic Ballpark in Birmingham.
