Big Day by Robinson Sparks 6-3 Stratford Win
Steve Robinson helped his team muscle past the Cumberland Copperheads, 6-3. In the game, the Stratford second baseman went 4-4 with a home run and 3 singles. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2. Stratford pitcher Bill Catron got the win. He's now 2-1. Steve Lowry was tagged with the loss. The first-place Cosmos have won 4 in a row.

Stratford used the timely hitting of John Hester to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Cosmos on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Robinson called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."
