Copperheads Top Chiefs in Extras, 5-4
The Atlanta Copperheads dealt the Chicago Chiefs a 5-4 loss in 10 innings at Whitney Park. Don Riley was the star on offense. He was 3-5 with a home run and a triple, while scoring 2 runs. The Federal Association East-leading Copperheads have a record of 30-17.

Riley had a game-changing home run in the top of the tenth. On a 2-0 slider from Norm Sutherland, he banged a solo home run to left, giving the Copperheads a 5-4 lead. It was the 1st home run of the year for Riley.

"We just never give in," said Riley. "We think we've got an opportunity as long as we have an at-bat and some outs left."
