Whalers Topple Swamp Foxes with Late Rally
Hartford and Savannah duked it out at Paradise Grounds and the Whalers came out victorious.

Behind the bravura of left fielder Quinton McCracken, the Hartford Whalers topped the Savannah Swamp Foxes by the score of 5-3. McCracken was 2 for 5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Whalers. Reliever Chris Holt picked up the win. His record improves to 4-2. Shane Reynolds took the loss.

Had Kevin Orie not delivered a key base hit in the top of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 2nd and 3rd, Orie hit a 2-run single. That made the score 5-3, in favor of the Whalers.

"Enjoyed this one," McCracken told the Hartford Daily. "But it's back to work tomorrow."

Hartford is now riding a 3-game win streak.
