Soggy conditions did not keep Chicago and Atlanta from playing their scheduled game.

The Chicago Hawks picked up a win at Hyde Park Stadium, downing the Atlanta Generals, 5-2. On the mound for Chicago was left-hander Kevin Edwards, who played a pivotal role in the win. Edwards picked up the win for Chicago, going 7 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 5 hits. He now sports a record of 8-10. Getting the save was Alfredo Alvarado, his 5th.

Chicago shortstop Bobby Richter helped the Hawks go up, 3-2, in the bottom of the sixth inning. With the game tied, Richter hit a run-scoring single off Atlanta pitcher Ron Bargiel.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Chicago manager Mike Flaherty. "It's usually not just one thing."

The Hawks sport a record of 55-80.
