Umpire Controversy Sinks Mobile in Slim Memphis Defeat
Memphis won 1 to 0 at Monroe Park amid umpire Pat Wright calls that the local crowd deemed unfair. Key plays included a disputed Jacobson homer ruling and a seventh inning error by Stock that allowed the decisive run to score, with Kissinger circling a two-hit, strong pitching effort for Memphis. Mobile's Stock and Robertson produced the best threats but could not overcome the umpire decisions and timely errors.
