Guest Wolverines Win, 7-1, at Houston
Detroit Wolverines starter Jay Crain was in fine form. He led his team to victory over the Houston Drillers, 7-1. Crain got the win, improving to 12-4. He allowed 7 hits and walked 3 over 8.2 innings. Crain allowed 1 run. The Wolverines, at 64-45, lead by one game in their division.

Detroit used a well-timed hit by Tom Wade to capture the win. The center fielder socked a bases-clearing double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Wolverines ahead, 5-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"We played a good game and came out on top," said Crain.
