Hopkins, Bears Sink Crooners Again in Game 2
Riding the 4-hit performance of first baseman Curtis Hopkins, the Birmingham Bears got a road win against the Hoboken Crooners, 9-3, in Game 2 of the Wild Card today. Hopkins was 4-4 with a home run, 3 singles, and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored once for the Bears, who now lead the best-of-5 series, 2 games to 0.

Samuel Lapthorne dealt the Crooners a blow in the top of the third. Batting with the bases loaded and Birmingham leading 1-0, Lapthorne hit a 0-2 knuckle curve for a 2-run single.

"We aren't quitting," Hoboken manager Anastasio Bojórquez said. "Yeah, the odds are definitely in their favor, but they've got to earn it."

Game 3 is scheduled for Friday at Ballpark of Birmingham in Birmingham.
