Bisons Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Whalers
Buffalo pitcher Bruce Chen did his part in helping his team beat the Hartford Whalers, 7-3. The left-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. The Bisons are off to an underwhelming start as they look to defend their championship, notching only their 7th win in 17 games.

Bob E Smith drove in one run for Buffalo. In the top of the eighth, with the teams deadlocked, 3-3, Smith delivered for the Bisons. His run-scoring sacrifice fly put Buffalo on top, 4-3.

"We need to string a few more wins like this one together," said Chen.
