Terriers Score Late, Clip Generals, 2-1
In a tight affair between the Boston Terriers and the Atlanta Generals, pitcher Ken Torkelson was in the zone. The Boston right-hander helped his team win the game, 2-1. Torkelson, now 4-4, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 4 hits, while striking out 5, walking 5, and allowing 1 run. The Generals, at 23-30, have lost 4 in a row.

The defining moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Boston. That's when Larry Anderson hit a run-scoring double off 24-year old right-handed pitcher Renie White to win the game. The home crowd went wild.

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