Combs Too Tough, Blanks Chicago
Frank Combs of the Atlanta Generals toyed with the Chicago Hawks, as he shut them out, 4-0, at Atlantic Station Field. He was almost untouchable, twirling a 3-hitter with 8 strikeouts and 1 walk.

"I'm sweating now because it's hot in here," Combs said in the clubhouse after the game. "But it didn't even feel like I was sweating out there."

Combs has gone 14-6 this season with an ERA of 1.76 and 174 strikeouts in 214.2 innings pitched. Other clubs are hitting .199 against him.
