Bears Score Late, Top Goobers, 8-5
Good production from center fielder Alphonse Johnson helped the Memphis Bears topple the Savannah Goobers, 8-5. Johnson was 2 for 3 with 2 singles and 2 walks. He scored 2 times for the Bears. The loss has the Goobers at 10-12.

Arthur Rudolph went 2 for 4 with 2 singles for Memphis. The 22-year old first baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the ninth. With one out and a runner on 3rd, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Nolan Napier. It was his 8th RBI of the season.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Memphis manager Garvin Mays.
