Wolverines Drop Wranglers, 7-4
A good performance from right fielder Pete Morrison helped the Detroit Wolverines defeat the Dallas Wranglers, 7-4. Morrison went 3-4 with 3 singles and a walk. He scored 2 times for the Wolverines. The winning pitcher was Larry Black. His record now stands at 1-0. The right-hander went 7 innings, allowing 4 runs on 6 hits for the Wolverines. Ron Laws, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 3rd save.

Detroit used a well-timed hit by Booker Lee to capture the win. The second baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Wolverines ahead, 5-4. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it was important.

"I like our moxie," said Wolverines manager Alex Wobbema.

The Wolverines, now 5-2, have hit the ground running this season.
