J.R. Richard went the distance as the Bristol Blasters rallied impressively to
win in dramatic style over Savannah Rumrunners, 6 to 5.

Bristol had the winning rally in the 9th inning plating 2 runs on 2 hits.
Mike Schmidt kicked off the action when he doubled.  Eddie Murray followed
and he cleared the fences for a two-run home run.  Bristol finished with 12
hits in the victory.  

Richard(9-11) got the victory, allowing 5 runs for the game. Doug Bird(1-6)
was the losing pitcher in relief.  'I pin this one on my own shoulders,' Bird
said. 'The bottom line is I didn't get the job done.  Our fans deserve better
than this.'
