Kaufman Socks 2 Homers in 8-7 Win
The Cornwall Royals defeated the Hialeah Firecats by the score of 8-7, with the biggest share of the credit going to catcher Jim Kaufman. Kaufman was 4 for 4 with 2 home runs and 2 singles, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2 for the Royals on the day. Ken Bixby got the win, improving to 3-3. He held the Firecats to 3 runs on 5 hits over 5.1 innings, while striking out 4 and walking 4. The Royals have now won 6 straight.

The Firecats had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Royals going into the bottom of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the 26-year old first baseman Tom Johnson came to the plate. Johnson hit a 2-run home run on a first pitch cutter from Hialeah hurler Jason Brokaw. It was Johnson's 8th home run of the year.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said Cornwall manager Keith Young.
