Wolverines Roll Past Generals, 6-2
The Atlanta Generals opened their 1975 season with a disappointing 6-2 loss to the Detroit Wolverines at Atlantic Station Field. Third Baseman Duane Simmons was a big part of the win for Detroit. He was 2 for 3 with a triple and a walk, while adding 3 RBI. Jim Bryant, the winning pitcher, improved to 1-0. He pitched 6 innings, giving up 6 hits and 2 runs, while striking out 2 and walking 4.

Simmons got the Wolverines off to a quick start. In the top of the first, with the bases loaded, he hit a sacrifice fly.

"I had a good game," said Simmons. "Winning makes it even better."
