Wolverines Win Nail-Biter
Lou Middleton did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Boston Terriers from losing, 11-10, to the Detroit Wolverines at Atlantic Avenue Grounds. Middleton hit 2 home runs. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. The win elevated the Wolverines to 54-34.

Detroit needed the clutch hitting of Bob Saari to notch the win. The third baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the 11th inning to put the Wolverines on top, 11-9. For the game, Saari had 1 home run and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

Boston manager Tom Lacher said he was disappointed with the loss. "Whenever you score that many runs, you expect to win the game."
