Late Heroics Net Generals 6-5 Win
The Atlanta Generals picked up a win at Atlantic Station Field, downing the New York Empires, 6-5, in 11 innings. On the mound for Atlanta was right-hander Ralph Weintraub, who played a pivotal role in the win. Renie White came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. His record now stands at 1-1. With the win, Atlanta pushed its record to 33-24.

Atlanta got a clutch hit from Ed Mika. The pinch hitter socked a solo home run in the bottom of the 11th inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was game-ender.

"The crowd was boisterous today," said Weintraub.
