Morris Stars for Godfathers in 8-1 Win
Pontiac Godfathers starter Chris Morris kept the Washington Generals hitters in check, leading his team to a comfortable 8-1 win. Morris went 6.2 innings to notch the win. He scattered 4 hits, walked 0, and struck out 14. His record improves to 10-3. The Godfathers have now won 4 straight.

The Generals had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Godfathers going into the bottom of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the 23-year old catcher Jerome Burns came to the plate. Burns hit a 3-run home run on a 2-0 fastball from Washington hurler Todd McGregor. It was Burns's 5th home run of the year.

"I still think this team can play even better," Morris told the Pontiac Citizen.
