Wolverines Need Extra Innings to Top Terriers, 4-2
Extra innings were needed to determine a winner at Atlantic Avenue Grounds.

The Boston Terriers could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Bruce Owen into a win. Instead, the Detroit Wolverines prevailed, 4-2, in 10 innings. Owen threw 7.1 innings of 6-hit ball. With the win, Detroit upped its record to 22-18.

Danny Strickland came through with a big-time hit for Detroit. The center fielder smacked a solo home run in the top of the tenth inning to give his team the lead, 3-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Detroit manager Kurt Peterson. "It's usually not just one thing."
