Pobladores Absorb 6-3 Loss at Atlantic Station Field
The Atlanta Generals overcame a good performance by Los Angeles catcher Ken Blair to knock off Los Angeles, 6-3, at Atlantic Station Field. Blair went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. George Palmer picked up the win, lifting his record to 12-8 on the season. He struck out 2 and walked 3 in 7 innings, while yielding 3 runs. Bill Davis was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 9 of 12 save opportunities.

George Palmer threw 7.0 innings allowing 3 runs for Atlanta. The 24-year old left-handed pitcher had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With one out and runners on 1st and 2nd, he broke a 3-3 tie with a run-scoring single off Carlos Novoa. It was his 12th hit of the season.

"I had pretty good command out there," said Palmer.

The Pobladores, now 48-81, have lost 5 straight.
