The Detroit Wolverines and Los Angeles Pobladores provided some drama for the home crowd.

The Detroit Wolverines got a sterling performance from pitcher Scott Litwak, but the Los Angeles Pobladores still prevailed, 5-4. Litwak threw 5.0 innings allowing 1 run. Leon Fairley picked up his 5th save of the season.

Costen Judy, the 17th overall pick in the 1966 draft, took Detroit hurler Brian Long deep in the bottom of the eighth. His solo home run put the Pobladores on top, 5-4. In all, Judy had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 4.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Judy. "And not try to do too much."

The loss makes Detroit 19-19.
