The Detroit Wolverines converted a terrific effort from starter Juan Rodriguez into a win over the Baltimore Lords at Wolverine Field. The Wolverines won the game by a final score of 5-1. In 8 innings, Rodriguez surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 2. He allowed 1 run. With the win, Detroit raised its record to 54-39.

Bob Gilley had a big 2-run double for the Wolverines in the bottom of the first inning. With Detroit leading 1-0 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from 24-year old left-handed pitcher Kenny Wilson and swatted a double to left-center. It was his 3rd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Wolverines ahead, 3-0.

Detroit manager Alex Wobbema commended his team for "banging out a nice win."
