Toronto Decked by Lee, Wolverines
Detroit left fielder Booker Lee made his presence felt in the 11-3 Wolverines triumph over the Toronto Hurons. Lee went 2-3 with 2 home runs and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 5. The win was credited to 26-year old right-handed pitcher Paul Carter in relief. His record improves to 8-6. Bill John took the loss. The win boosted Detroit to 53-50.

Gasper Copeland's at-bat in the top of the fourth inning was a big one for Detroit. Coming to bat with one out, the bases loaded and Detroit trailing 3-1, the catcher hit a 2-run single.

"Winning is all that really matters and we got it done today," Lee told the Detroit Daily News.
