The Generals were led at the plate by Mark Hudson who went 3-for-5 with an RBI and David Baker who went 2-for-3 with a run scored and a walk. Brendan McGaheran, Abel Baker, Jeramie Marek, and Michael Niemann each had an RBI apiece as well. The Generals improved their record to 10-6 as the Aces fell to 4-11.
