Colorado 9 Atlanta 6

Three of the four players involved in a trade between the two clubs participated in this game.

Colorado wasted little time getting to Atlanta starting pitcher Greasy Lacy by scoring four times in the first inning.

Bob Lynn started things off with a one out single. Tom Smalley followed with another single sending Lynn to third base. Lacy then walked Tony Shwinieke walked to load the bases with one outs. Walt Johnson sacrifice fly went for the second out and an RBI.

Lacy walked Danny Mueller with the bases loaded to force in another run and Frank Shofner, fighting for a roster spot doubled clearing the bases.

Shofner is one of several players who could be sent down when left fielder Willie Hughes is activated off the disabled list before the next game.

Matt Buchanan's second career major league homerun put Alanta on the borad in the second inning 4-1.

Colorado's starting pitcher Paul Golden helped to get that run back himself with a leadoff double in Colorado's next time at bat. Two outs later Tom Smalley singled Golden across the plate with run number five. (5-1).

In the 5th inning Bob Lynn and Tom Smalley hit successive doubles to make it 6-1.

Atlanta made it 6-2 on a Jim Lee RBI single in the 6th and Mike Adams hit a two run homerun off Horacio Escobar in the 8th to bring Atlanta closer 6-4.

Colorado sent nine batters to the late in the bottom of the eighth inning scored three runs on four hits and left three men on base to put the game out of reach. Johnson, Parent and pinch hitter Joe Fiene had consecutive hits. Fiene's single drove in two runs (Johnson and Parent).

Rube Low came in to face his former team for the first time since the trade and was greeted by a RBI double off the bat of his former catcher Larry Garrett.

After that hit Low retired the next two before walking pinch hitter Bill Cookson and Tom Smalley reached on an error by Buchanan, a converted catcher playing first base. Low got out of it by striking out his second hitter in the inning, Tony Shwinieke.

Jay Bottarini started the ninth off but gave way after two were out when an error allowed two unearned runs to score. Lance Holbert got the final out for one of his easier save among his 26 for the season.
