Copperheads Hold Off BigStars, 5-4
The Cumberland Copperheads scored a tight 5-4 win versus the Austin BigStars at John Lee Pettimore Field. Cumberland pitcher Héctor Bernal held his own in the contest. Bernal, the winner, moves to 13-8. He threw 8 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 6 and giving up 1 walk. The win lifted the Cumberland record to 73-61.

Fraser Wearne went 2 for 2 with a double and a walk for Cumberland. The 20-year old right fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Richard Verhoeve. It was his 86th RBI of the season.

"This is a great group to be a part of, and it's a big win for us," Bernal told the Cumberland Bulletin.
