The Smokies lost game one of their championship series to Huntsville 8-7.  Mitch Atkins gave up five runs in 3 2/3 innings but he didn’t even take the loss because of all the offense.  That loss went to Jesse Estrada, who gave up two unearned runs in just 2/3 of an inning.

Casey McGehee went two for five with a three run homer to give the Smokies a boost.  Tyler Colvin doubled twice, drove in a run and scored once.
