Swamp Foxes Hammered by Matheny, Fall Further Behind in DS
When the games really matter, the Hartford Whalers put on their best show, beating the Savannah Swamp Foxes by a final score of 9-8 today. Mike Matheny earned player of the game honors, as he went 4 for 5 with a home run, a double, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 4. Hartford now leads Savannah 2-0 in the best-of-5 affair.

With the clubs tied 8-8 in the bottom of the tenth and the bases loaded, Hartford sent Matheny to the plate. He got a 3-1 fastball and drew a walk, driving in 1 run, to put the Whalers on top, 9-8.

"Put a star next to this win," Matheny said.

The next game is set to be played Sunday, August 17th, 1997 in Savannah. The scheduled starters for the game are Mike Thurman for Hartford and John Wasdin for Savannah.
