Home Loss Shrinks Wranglers Series Lead to 2-1
The Detroit Wolverines have closed some of the gap between themselves and the series-leading Dallas Wranglers, winning, 5-3, at Bluff Park. Wolverines left-hander Scott Litwak threw 5.0 innings allowing 3 runs. The win cuts the deficit facing the Wolverines to 2-1 in the best-of-7 Divisional Round.

Detroit used the timely hitting of Chuck McCormick to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Wolverines on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Scott gave us a heck of an effort," said Detroit manager Alex Wobbema.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Bluff Park in Dallas.
