The Atlanta Braves knocked off the River Hills Rockets, 8-5, in National League action at River Hills Grounds. Atlanta pitcher and Santiago, Dominican Republic, native Jose Velazquez had an outstanding performance. River Hills, at 57-78, has lost 5 straight.

Chris McDade delivered a big hit for Atlanta. The pinch hitter drilled a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Braves ahead, 6-5. It was his only hit, but it was a beauty.

"If I go out there and help the team win, that's all you can do," said Velazquez.
