Wolverines, Bluebirds Play 11 to Settle Game 1, Detroit Now Leads Series 1-0
The Detroit Wolverines took the first game of the World's Championship Series in dramatic fashion today, topping the Brooklyn Bluebirds 4-3 in an extra-inning walk-off win. Wolverines right-hander Luther Root was selected player of the game, as he threw 11 innings of 8-hit ball.

Detroit's win came gift-wrapped. With one out in the bottom of the 11th, with the game tied, Luther Root reached on an error by the left fielder, driving in 1 run.

"Getting ahead of the hitters was the key," said Root.

The next game is scheduled for tomorrow in Detroit. The scheduled starters for the game are Chicken Cannon for the Brooklyn Bluebirds and Nathaniel Million for the the Detroit Wolverines.
