Detroit Beats Atlanta, 5-2
The home crowd had a good time watching the Atlanta Generals and Detroit Wolverines get after it.

The Detroit Wolverines picked up a win at Wolverine Field, knocking off the Atlanta Generals, 5-2. Starting pitcher Juan Rodriguez was a big reason why. Rodriguez got the win, improving to 1-1. He gave up 6 hits and walked 0 over 7 innings. He allowed 2 runs. Elmer Bernstein nailed down his 1st save.

Bill Taylor took Atlanta hurler Rob Banas deep in the bottom of the fourth. His 3-run home run put the Wolverines on top, 3-0. In all, Taylor had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 4.

"I was trying to do what I do, go out there and compete," said Rodriguez.

The Generals fall to 4-9 and continue their lackluster start to the 1975 season.
