The Atlanta (GCL) Firebirds trumped the Detroit (GCL) Tigers, 8-6, at Joker Marchant Stadium. Atlanta (GCL) left fielder Brad Wright was terrific. He was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Atlanta (GCL) occupies third place in the Northeast Division at 19-24.

Wright had a game-changing home run in the top of the seventh. On a 1-2 cutter from Elijah Reed, he banged a 2-run home run to center, giving the Firebirds a 7-6 lead. It was the 8th home run of the year for Wright.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Wright.
