Combs Masters Chicago in Complete Game Win
1972 is shaping up to be a forgettable year for the Chicago Hawks.

The Atlanta Generals wanted a good start from Frank Combs -- and he delivered one. The result was a 5-1 Atlanta win over the Chicago Hawks at Hyde Park Stadium. The triumph puts Atlanta at 65-58 for the season.

Combs threw well for Atlanta, thwarting the Chicago offense. The right-hander tossed 98 pitches over 9 innings. He allowed just 1 run on 5 hits.

"For the most part, I felt like I did a pretty good job with executing the pitches I was throwing," said Combs.
