Wolverines Win, 4-2, Versus Dallas
Detroit third baseman Duane Simmons made his presence felt in the 4-2 Wolverines triumph over the Dallas Wranglers. Simmons was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. John Fredrick picked up the win, improving his season record to 6-6. He struck out 4 in 7.1 innings. Detroit, at 50-45, holds down third place in the American Baseball League Eastern Division.

Had John Zimmerman not delivered a key base hit in the top of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Zimmerman hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 2-1, in favor of the Wolverines.

"Getting the win feels nice," said Zimmerman. "More importantly, I had a good game."
