Generals Get Hard-Earned Win
The Atlanta Generals scored a tight, 2-1 win versus the Detroit Wolverines at Atlantic Station Field. Atlanta pitcher Bill Davis held his own in the contest. The winner in relief was Frank Noorani. The left-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 2 innings. He now owns a record of 8-11. With the win, the Generals sit at 82-71.

Roberto Palacios was the walk-off hero for Atlanta. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Generals second baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

Palacios said this kind of win gives the team "a buzz."
