Wolverines Pull Out Late-Game Win, 5-4
Pete Morrison, who led the ABL in stolen bases with 55 last year, led Detroit to a triumph over Los Angeles. The final score was 5-4. The right fielder went 3 for 4, falling a triple shy of the cycle. He scored 1 run and added 3 RBI. Detroit leads the American Baseball League Eastern Division by 6½ games.

Morrison had an important at-bat with runners on 1st and 2nd in the bottom of the sixth, when he hit a run-scoring double. The Wolverines went on to win.

"There's a lot of passion in our clubhouse," said Morrison. "When we put it together we're a great ball club."
