Smokies Get Clutch Win, 2-1
The Jackson Generals wasted an inspired, 7-inning effort from starter Jesus Cruz, falling, 2-1, to the Tennessee Smokies at The Ballpark at Jackson. The win went to Bill Olsen in relief, making him now 3-2. Mike Nance took the loss for Jackson. Tennessee currently is in 4th place in the North Division at 42-52.

Tennessee needed the clutch hitting of Danny Mercedes to seal the deal. The right fielder swatted a solo home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Smokies on top, 2-1. For the game, Mercedes had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"I guess we'll all be a happy family for at least one day," said Mercedes.
