Wolverines Slap 5-2 Loss on Northmen
Detroit right-hander John Fredrick pitched his team to victory over the Twin Cities Northmen at Twin Cities Stadium. The final score was 5-2. Fredrick went 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 8 hits, walked 1, and struck out 3. His record improves to 13-7. Detroit, at 68-47, is 3 games up in the American Baseball League Eastern Division.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Chris Beeler? The Detroit right fielder had a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the fifth inning to put the Wolverines on top, 2-0. For the game, Beeler had 1 double and 2 singles in 4 at-bats.

"It was just a matter of executing," said Detroit manager Alex Wobbema.
