The Atlanta Generals defeated the Toronto Hurons, 5-4, at Dominion Field. Leading the charge for Atlanta was catcher Jose Arriaga. He went 2 for 3 with a home run, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3. The Generals bumped their record to 61-56 with this latest triumph.

Richie Lord drew 1 walk for Atlanta. With one out and the game tied in the top of the seventh inning, Lord, who finished 5th in the ABL in doubles with 35 last year, had a clutch at-bat. Facing Toronto hurler Steve Persenaire, he hit a sacrifice fly to give the Generals a 5-4 lead.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said Atlanta manager Philipe Yazzie.
