Boston Falls Again, 6-1
Atlanta Generals pitcher Wayne Grant was in top form, leading his team past the Boston Terriers, 6-1. Atlanta goes to 8-1 with the win.

Chris Swanson had a big 2-run home run for the Generals in the top of the second inning. With Atlanta leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a sinker from Vern Gould, who led the NBL in wins with 26 in 1962, and punished it. The result was his 1st home run of the season, which put the Generals on top, 3-0.

"It was a solid team effort and we'll try to keep this momentum going," Swanson told reporters after the game.
