Atlanta Beats Boston, 5-3
The Atlanta Generals defeated the Boston Terriers by the score of 5-3, with the biggest share of the credit going to center fielder Matt Legrow. Legrow went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 doubles, while scoring 2 and driving in 2 for the Generals on the day. Frank Combs earned the win to go to 4-8. He allowed 2 runs on 4 hits, with 1 walk and 7 strikeouts in 6 innings of work. Steve Papa recorded the save, his 4th.

Atlanta took a 4-2 lead on Legrow's 5th home run of the season. The solo home run, which he hit off Alex Alonso in the bottom of the sixth, propelled Atlanta to the win.

Said Atlanta manager Philipe Yazzie: "They come in every day and work hard. It's nice to see that work pay off."

This win makes it 6 in a row for Atlanta.
