Bowsers Fall Short, 7-6, at Dollywood
The rain could not keep the home crowd from enjoying a good ballgame.

Though he had a terrific game, Justin McCoy could not prevent his team, the Columbus Bowsers, from absorbing a loss. Dollywood won the game, 7-6. McCoy belted 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. Shane Kidd closed it out for Dollywood, earning his 15th save.

D.J. Ferguson had a big 3-run home run for the Partons in the bottom of the first inning. With Dollywood leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 3rd, he sized up a slider from Adam Matthews, who is tied for 5th in the S-A in holds with 8, and punished it. The result was his 7th home run of the season, which put the Partons on top, 4-0.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said Columbus manager Joe Mills. "But we decided not to take it."

The third-place Bowsers have lost 4 straight games.
