Empires Lose By a Run at Detroit, 3-2
The performance of Booker Lee proved critical in helping Detroit beat New York, 3-2. The Wolverines center fielder went 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Earning his 3rd save of the year was Len Pates. Detroit, now 6-2, is playing great baseball to start the year.

Lee contributed a big hit, a 3-run home run, for Detroit in the bottom of the third. With his team trailing 1-0, Lee took a curveball from Dennis McAteer and stroked the home run to left. His 2nd home run of the season allowed the Wolverines to leap in front, 3-1.

Lee attributed the win to "everyone pulling their weight."
