The Atlanta Aggies weathered a fine game by London center fielder Matt Batdorf to upend the Werewolves, 6-5, at Aggies Ballpark. Batdorf was 3 for 4 with 3 singles and a walk. He scored 2 runs. Atlanta, with the win, is 12-28.

The game was decided with one out in the bottom of the ninth. With Atlanta trailing 5-4, Damian Willingham hit a fastball from Angel Garabito to center for a 2-run single. Just like that, the Aggies had a walk-off win.

"I like the grit of this ballclub," Willingham said.
