Detroit Wolverines (32-14 .696 in 1st place in the Liberty League) at
Louisville Bourbons (30-23 .566 5.5 GB in 3rd place)

Fred McDonough, Det. (21-5.0) (L 3-1 2.04 6.6-2.0-3.1 H/9-BB/9-SO/9) vs. William McLeod, Lou. (30-5.6) (R 7-8 4.93 9.2-4.7-3.9)

We scored 18 runs off our former ace the 1st time we met in Detroit. McDonough gave up 8 runs in his last outing. This might get ugly.

LINEUPS (* = LHB # = SHB)
DET - 1: 3B Ed Aldrich (25-6.8) 2: SS John Ingling (29-4.6) 3: LF Al Lewis* (23-9.1) 4: RF Ben Smith* (29-6.7) 5: 1B Dave Odekirk# (24-6.5) 6: CF Ren Dunbar (25-6.8) 7: 2B Ed Engelhardt (24-5.0) 8: C Jimmy Babcock (32-6.9)

We were down, 6 to 1, after 5 innings and I had pretty much resigned myself to a loss already. Going into the top of the 9th, we were down, 6 to 3. Jimmy Babcock led us off with a single. PH Tom Morgenthal worked a walk. Ed Aldrich grounded into a force at 2nd. Runners at 1st and 3rd now with 1 out. John Ingling singled to score Babcock and Aldrich went for 3rd and beat the thrown, Ingling taking 2nd. Al Lewis then hit a little nubber in the direction of third base, but by the time McLeod fielded it, Lewis was safe at 1st, the other runners holding. Bases loaded and 1 out for Ben Smith, who singled to right, scoring 2 and tying the game! Odekirk and Dunbar popped out to end the inning.

Ed Price came on to pitch the bottom of the 9th. He got Hinde to ground out and then struck out Terlizzi and Panozzo!

In the top of the 10th, with 1 out, 3 straight singles by Babcock, Price and Aldrich gave us the go-ahead run, but that was all we got. Price is now 7 for 18 as a hitter (.389). He hit a home run for Syracuse (A) earlier this year.

In the bottom of the 10th, Price issued a 2-out walk, but no more!
