Detroit Rallies Past New York, 6-3
Detroit catcher Dan Smith had a 5-RBI performance, which helped his team down the New York Gothams, 6-3. Wally Hunter was the winner. Over 8.1 innings, he yielded 3 runs on 7 hits, with 4 walks and 3 strikeouts. Jack Halbur closed it out for Detroit, earning his 3rd save.

Had Smith not come through in the top of the eighth, who knows how the game would've ended? But with two down, Smith hit a grand slam home run. The Dynamos took the lead, 4-3, and never looked back.

"I like the roll we're on," said Detroit manager Dick York.

The second-place Dynamos have a record of 44-32.
