With 13-1 Win, Copperheads Go to 104-40
The Washington Eagles had to reckon with Atlanta Copperheads hurler Howie Burt. Burt, who finished 2nd in the FA in wins with 19 last year, overwhelmed the opposition in the 13-1 Copperheads triumph. Atlanta has an impressive 104-40 record.

The Eagles had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Copperheads going into the bottom of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the 27-year old third baseman Jim Duchesne came to the plate. Duchesne hit a 2-run home run on a first pitch fastball from Washington hurler Jim Stewart. It was Duchesne's 14th home run of the year.

Burt told the media after that game that the mood in the clubhouse is "extremely positive" after a win like that.
