Aggies Win Thriller, 16-14
The Atlanta Aggies withstood a fine game by Louisville center fielder John Benson at Aggies Ballpark, to upend the Sweepers, 16-14. Benson was 3-4 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 4. The Aggies go to 20-61 with the win.

Atlanta got a knockout punch from Dave Semones. The second baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"We did a lot of good things tonight," said Atlanta manager Jeremiah Simpson.
