The Boston Terriers picked up a win at Atlantic Avenue Grounds, taking down the Detroit Wolverines, 6-1. Starting pitcher Roger Pochatko was a big reason why. Boston is last in the American Baseball League Eastern Division with a record of 21-29.

Boston first baseman Larry Fletcher contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. 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 Terriers ahead, 2-1.

"We need to string a few more wins like this one together," said Fletcher.
