Home Loss Shrinks Lords' Series Lead to 3-2
Facing elimination, the Detroit Wolverines were looking for a savior. For today, at least, Les Nash delivered.

At Seton Hill Stadium, the 27-year old pitched a game for the ages to fend off the Baltimore Lords and help the Wolverines close their deficit in the World Series. Nash threw a 9-inning, complete-game shutout in the 2-0 Detroit win, striking out 3 and allowing 5 hits. The Wolverines how trail 2-3 in the best-of-7 series.

Nash, a native of Burlington, Iowa, was dealing all game. He kept Baltimore hitters off-balance, while giving the Wolverines 9 quality innings. Nash threw 112 pitches, allowing 5 hits and striking out 3.

"For the most part, I stayed out of the middle of the plate," Nash said.

The next game is scheduled for Saturday, October 25th, 1952 at Wolverine Field. Slated to start are Ben Flowers for the Baltimore Lords and Ray Barker for the the Detroit Wolverines.
