New York Loss Spoils Terrific Game by Burton
New York got a terrific performance from pitcher P.J. Burton, but it wasn't enough to beat the Atlanta Firebirds. Atlanta won the Citi Field contest, 3-2. Burton threw 8.0 innings of shutout ball for the losing team. Dan Hicks recorded the save, his 5th. The Firebirds raised their record to 48-72.

Burton pitched a businesslike game for New York, surrendering no runs on 1 hit in 8 innings, while striking out 4. It was not enough, though, to get his team a win.
