Wolves Win, Copeland 4-for-4
The Toronto Wolves topped the Los Angeles Stars, 4-2, at Dominion Stadium. Toronto right fielder Kirby Copeland was a spark plug for the offense. He was 4-4 with a home run, 3 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. The Wolves have stumbled out of the gate, getting only their 6th win in 18 games.

Copeland had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the seventh. On a full count slider from Pete Ford, he banged a solo home run to center, giving the Wolves a 3-2 lead. It was the 3rd home run of the year for Copeland.

"At the end of the day, it's always about your starting pitcher," said Toronto skipper Jim Whitehead.
