Washington Downed, 3-1, by Firebirds
In a low-scoring game between the Atlanta Firebirds and the Washington Nationals, pitcher Les Hampson was masterful on the mound. The Atlanta right-hander spearheaded his team's 3-1 win. Curt Wilkerson snagged the win in relief. The left-hander allowed no runs on no hits over 2 innings. He's now 5-4 on the season. The save went to Joel Nelson, number 3 for him.

Atlanta relied on the bat of Jorge Gutiérrez to get the win. The center fielder ripped a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Firebirds ahead, 2-1. For the game, Gutiérrez had 1 double and 1 triple in 4 at-bats.

"We put some tough at-bats on some tough pitches," said Atlanta manager Barry Larkin.

With this game in the books, Atlanta is 21-28, Washington 27-22.
