Generals Victorious at Detroit, 4-3
Atlanta Generals starter George Palmer pitched well against the Detroit Wolverines at Wolverine Field, leading his team to a win, 4-3. Renie White closed the game out for Atlanta, earning his 9th save. The loss makes Detroit 32-28.

Atlanta used a clutch at-bat from Kyle Devine to capture the win. The shortstop hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Generals ahead, 2-1. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"George has got a slow heartbeat," said Atlanta manager Philipe Yazzie. "He doesn't panic or anything."
