Wolverines Flatten Habitants, 10-3
Fans were not deterred by the threat of rain. They came to see their hometown Detroit Wolverines take on the Montreal Habitants.

The 10-3 Detroit win over Montreal was due in large part to Pete Morrison. The Wolverines right fielder was 3 for 5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. The second-place Wolverines now sit at 24-19.

Detroit pitcher Scott Litwak contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the second. With two down, he hit a fastball to right field for a run-scoring single. It was his 7th hit of the season and put the Wolverines ahead, 1-0.

"I found a nice groove out there," said Litwak.
