Steve Walp, who is tied for 7th in the ABL in hits with 154, took Detroit hurler Jim Bryant deep in the bottom of the first. His 2-run home run put the Generals on top, 2-0. In all, Walp had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 5.

Said Detroit manager Alex Wobbema after the blowout loss: "They did pretty much every facet of the game better than we did and that's why we lost."
