NOTES OF THE GAME WITH ATLANTA IN FOCUS
Campbell worked eighteen innings as Dougherty largely kept the Barone guessing though one disastrous inning marred the effort. Robinson and Iosa drew attention as the crowd discussed calls while Vaugh Ely and Lauren moved to the bench. Fly’s temper flared, Duffy’s hitting improved since arriving in Atlanta, and Tapings from Tawinr stood out. Koehler’s two-base hit energized the second game and the staff noted three players with multiple hits. Powell vowed to keep Powell in the lineup for a five-game stretch as Jones mused on Rube Waddell and umpire friction. Meanwhile Talbotton beat Greenville 8 to 1 behind McGhee and Wing, with McGhee and Gibson sharing duties.
