Yankees Bang Out 10-5 Win Versus Atlanta
Spirited fans at Atlanta Fulton County Stadium greeted the Atlanta Braves for their clash with the New York Yankees.

The New York Yankees bested the Atlanta Braves by a score of 10-5, with first baseman Don Mattingly getting the main credit. On the day, Mattingly went 2 for 3 with 2 doubles and 2 walks. He scored 3 times and drove in 2 for the Yankees. Rick Aguilera was the winner. Over 7.1 innings, he allowed 5 runs on 10 hits, with 1 walk and 4 strikeouts.

Mattingly's nice game included a clutch 2-run double in the top of the fifth.

"Baseball is about momentum," said Mattingly, "and we feel we've got it in our favor after that win."

The Yankees raised their record to 53-70.
