MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- Hoosac Valley graduate Matt Koperniak recorded his second two-home run game of the year on Tuesday for the Triple-A Memphis Redbirds.

Koperniak went 3-for-5 with four RBIs for the St. Louis Cardinals affiliate in a 13-11, extra-inning win over the Nashville Sounds.

Koperniak's seventh-inning round-tripper to straightaway center field came in a five-run rally for Memphis to overcome a four-run deficit.

For the season, Koperniak is hitting .321 with 41 runs batted in and 12 homers. He has a slugging percentage of .517 for the Redbirds, who are 5-3 after Tuesday's win to lead the International League West in the second half of the season.

Memphis finished the first half of the season in fourth place in the 10-team division with a record of 38-37.

Complaint Withdrawn Over Adams Park Street Christmas Display

ADAMS, Mass. — The Christmas display at Dr. Martin Bush's dentist office no longer has a violation against it after a complaint was withdrawn.

On Jan. 15, Bush received a correction order from David Rhinemiller, the code enforcement officer, after he received a phone complaint of sound emanating from the front of the building from the end of November until early January.

The sound likely refers to the music coming from Bush's longstanding "Polar Express" display in the window of his office, located at 9 Park St.

The violations cited were "holiday decorations with sound that generates a high [sound level] that [is] 10 decimals above normal surrounding noise at the property line.”

In addition, "noise interfering with the normal operation or occupant's health of adjacent or abutting properties or atmosphere."

The display is not against local sound ordinances because from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. the town does not have sound restrictions, Rhinemiller said.

The violation was unrelated to decibel readings because no measurement could be taken — the complaint was received on Jan. 2, after the noise had already stopped.
