Wolverines Victorious at Toronto, 8-4
The Detroit Wolverines overcame a pretty good performance by Toronto center fielder Jorge Luna, beating the Hurons, 8-4, at Dominion Field. Luna was 2-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Detroit starter John Fredrick was credited with the win after throwing 117 pitches over 7.2 innings. His record now stands at 3-1. The setback makes the Hurons 5-10.

An inflection point occurred with two out in the top of the third. That's when Wolverines left fielder Booker Lee hit a fastball from Bill John for a 2-run single. Just like that, Detroit was up, 4-3.

"This team is on a mission," said Lee, who is one of the clubhouse leaders. "I like our focus."
