Ed Ott launched 2 homeruns and had 5 RBI and Phil Niekro was able to finish
what he started and was credited with a complete game as the Savannah
Rumrunners outscored the Iowa MoonlightGraham 10 to 3.

Ott had a good evening at the plate.  He rifled a three-run blast in the 2nd
inning and blasted a two-run home run in the 5th inning.  Savannah totaled 13
hits on the night.  

The win was credited to Niekro(10-4) who went the whole way allowing 3 runs.
Eric Rasmussen(4-6) was hit with the loss.  The win by Savannah is a very
welcome one as they have been struggling in recent days.  Their record now
stands at 31-38 - only 1-9 in their last ten games.  Iowa continued their
losing ways and their record is now 35-34.  They are 1-9 in their last ten
games.
