Wolverines Suffer 7-2 Loss to Atlanta
The Atlanta Generals picked up a win at Atlantic Station Field, knocking off the Detroit Wolverines, 7-2. On the mound for Atlanta was left-hander Scott Dubyak. He played a key role in the triumph. Dubyak, the winner, moves to 14-9. He threw 9 innings of 2-hit ball, while fanning 7 and giving up 8 walks. Atlanta has now won 3 in a row.

Atlanta took a 6-2 lead on Roberto Palacios's 21st home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which Palacios hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Detroit pitcher John Fredrick visibly frustrated.

"I'm happy we won," said Dubyak. "That's first and foremost. My goal is for the team to win the day I pitch, however it's done."
