Lee Swings Wolverines to 8-2 Win
Booker Lee was a major factor in the 8-2 Detroit win over Baltimore. The Wolverines left fielder was 3 for 3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Jim Bryant picked up the win, improving his season record to 13-5. He struck out 8 in 8 innings. Detroit has now won 5 games in a row.

Pete Morrison had a big 2-run home run for the Wolverines in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Detroit leading 3-2 and a runner on 3rd, he sized up a sinker from Larry Diego, who finished 5th in the ABL in strikeouts with 182 in 1969, and punished it. The result was his 19th home run of the season, which put the Wolverines on top, 5-2.

"Solid performance from our side," said Wolverines manager Alex Wobbema.
