Home Loss Shrinks Wranglers Series Lead to 3-2
Already down in the League Championship Series, the Detroit Wolverines put on their best show, beating the Dallas Wranglers by a final score of 2-1. Scott Litwak was special. He threw 7.0 innings of 5-hit ball. Detroit now trails Dallas 3-2 in the best-of-7 affair.

Detroit used the timely hitting of Booker Lee to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Wolverines on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We put some tough at-bats on some tough pitches," said Detroit manager Alex Wobbema.

Game 6 is scheduled for Thursday at Wolverine Field in Detroit.
