Wolverines Drop Northmen, 8-1
Detroit Wolverines pitcher Scott Litwak was in fine form, leading his team past the Twin Cities Northmen, 8-1. The winner was Litwak. He threw 7.1 innings allowing 1 run. The loser was Syed Farooqi. The win puts Detroit at 65-63 this season.

Detroit used a well-timed hit by Joe Voss to capture the win. The third baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Wolverines ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

Litwak called the win the result of "everyone working in tandem."
