Generals Drop Wolverines, 9-6, with Late Score
The Atlanta Generals beat the Detroit Wolverines, 9-6, at Atlantic Station Field. The win was due in part to third baseman Zach Hodge, who went 3-3 with 2 doubles and 2 walks, while scoring 2. Atlanta pitcher Bill Wilson got the win. He's now 2-0. John Bailey was tagged with the loss. Dick McCranie recorded the save, his 2nd.

Had Armando Lima not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 3rd, Lima hit a run-scoring double. That made the score 7-6, in favor of the Generals.

"It was a solid, all-around game for us," said Atlanta manager Philipe Yazzie.

After today's action, Atlanta sits at 38-44; Detroit slips to 50-34.
