| Clippers Popped by Copperheads, 6-3 | The Atlanta Copperheads beat the Baltimore Clippers, 6-3. Atlanta pitcher and Cedar Rapids, Iowa, native Marco Middleton led the way. The Copperheads, now 3-1, have played some good baseball in the early going.
Al Hubbard hit a 2-run home run off Paddy Williamson in the bottom of the first, which put the Copperheads ahead, 2-1. In addition to the homer, Hubbard had 1 double, while going 2 for 4.
"Main thing is I want the team to win," Middleton told a reporter after the game. "Just have to go out there, take care of my job, and give my team a chance to win." | |
