Downs, Generals Beat Wolverines, 6-5
The Atlanta Generals knocked off the Detroit Wolverines by the score of 6-5. Jerry Downs provided some pop, going 3-for-4 with 1 home run. Roger Pochatko picked up the win, improving his season record to 1-2. He struck out 6 in 9 innings. Losses have been rare for the Wolverines, who are now 9-4.

The game turned with two out in the top of the seventh when Downs, who finished 5th in the NBL in on-base percentage with .409 in 1956, hit a 2-run single. It propelled the Generals into the lead, 6-4.

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