The Atlanta Copperheads picked up a win at Peachtree Stadium, knocking off the Boston Minutemen, 3-1. Starting pitcher Marco Middleton was a big reason why. Now 94-52, the Copperheads have won 12 games in a row.

Middleton, a native of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, was dealing all game. He kept Boston hitters off-balance, while giving the Copperheads 9 quality innings. Middleton threw 119 pitches, allowing 5 hits and striking out 4.

"This team is doing whatever it takes to win," said Copperheads manager Don Fox.
