Generals Trip Empires, 4-3, in Extra Innings
Atlanta first baseman Jerry Downs helped his team beat the New York Empires, 4-3. Downs, who finished 4th in the NBL in on-base percentage with .402 in 1957, went 4 for 4 for the Generals. Wayne Grant, credited with the win, is now 1-0. He allowed no runs on no hits. The Generals go to 14-22 with the win.

The Generals procured the win, in large part because of catcher Darrell Davis. In the bottom of the 12th, he produced the game-winning run-scoring single.

"Exhilarating win," said Davis.
