Hurons Drop Close One Late
The Atlanta Generals satisfied the home crowd at Atlantic Station Field, treating them to a season-opening win, 4-3, over the Toronto Hurons. Starting Pitcher Frank Combs was the standout performer for Atlanta. Atlanta reliever Renie White snagged the win, upping his record to 1-0. Dave Hamilton shouldered the loss.

Atlanta got a knockout punch from Roberto Palacios. The second baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the bottom of the sixth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"This place was rocking at the end," Combs said.
