Wolverines Win by Slim Margin, 4-3
The Detroit Wolverines had to overcome a fine effort from Houston pitcher Edwin Quezada to grab a narrow 4-3 win at Sam Houston Field. Quezada went 6 innings and allowed 2 runs. Detroit, at 65-45, is 2 games up in the American Baseball League Eastern Division.

Booker Lee, who won the Rookie of the Year Award in 1964, aided the Detroit cause with a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth. For the game, the second baseman went 1-3 with a double and a walk.

"This win gets us that much closer to where we want to be," Lee said in postgame remarks.
