The Twin Cities Northmen went down to defeat to Larry Black and his Detroit teammates. The final score was 2-1 in favor of the Wolverines. Black went 8.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 2, and struck out 8. His record improves to 9-7. Len Pates earned his 16th save in 19 tries.

Duane Simmons, the 8th overall pick in the 1965 draft, chipped in for Detroit with a solo home run in the bottom of the seventh. For the game, the first baseman had 2 hits in 3 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 1 run batted in.

After the game, Simmons refused to speak to a reporter for the Detroit Daily. "You've accused me of throwing teammates under the bus," he said. "So, excuse me if I decline to answer your questions."

With the victory, the Wolverines upped their record to 62-44.
