Wolverines Trip Hurons, 7-3
The Detroit Wolverines topped the Toronto Hurons, 7-3, in American Baseball League action at Dominion Field. The game was highlighted by the performance of Detroit pitcher Jim Bryant. At 54-50, the Wolverines find themselves in third place in the American Baseball League Eastern Division.

Detroit used a clutch at-bat from Gasper Copeland to capture the win. The catcher hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Wolverines ahead, 3-2. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Today was a lot of fun," said Copeland.
