Georgia Dome was the site of a competitive game between the Atlanta Falcons and Detroit Lions.

The Detroit Lions locked up a win at Georgia Dome, knocking off the Atlanta Falcons, 5-3. On the mound for Detroit was right-hander Rodrigo Arzola. He played a major role in the triumph. With the win over Atlanta, the Lions improved to 16-18.

Detroit used the timely hitting of Mike Rivera to capture the win. The catcher stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Lions on top, 5-2. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but he made it count.

"Rodrigo was dictating to their hitters," said Detroit manager Chris Salerno.
