Behind the hitting of Henry Rivera, the Toronto Hurons stopped the Atlanta Generals, 6-4. Rivera went 3-4 with 2 doubles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for the Hurons. Joe Scott, the winning pitcher, is now 1-2. He went 7.2 innings, allowing 4 runs on 8 hits, while fanning 5 and walking 1. The Generals, now 7-14, continue their slow start.

Toronto relied on the hitting of Jorge Luna to pick up the win. The center fielder clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Hurons on top, 2-1. For the game, Luna had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"I'm just trying to make good contact," said Luna, "one at-bat at a time."
