Lords Trounce Generals, 10-2
The Atlanta Generals took it on the chin, losing, 10-2, to the Baltimore Lords. Larry Diego, who is a three-time All-Star, pitched a strong game for Baltimore. Diego got the win, improving to 6-5. He gave up 2 hits and walked 1 over 6 innings. He allowed 1 run. The triumph makes Baltimore 28-57.

The Generals had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Lords going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 27-year old catcher Buddy Bursley came to the plate. Bursley hit a 2-run double on a 0-1 changeup from Atlanta hurler Scott Dubyak. It was Bursley's 13th double of the year.

"We were firing on all cylinders," said Lords manager Steve Read.
