Dynamos Make Losers of Eagles
The Detroit Dynamos downed the Washington Eagles, 9-2, at Columbia Stadium. Del Johnson led the way, going 4-for-5 for Detroit. Wally Hunter, who is tied for 7th in the FA with a 1.28 WHIP, was the winner. He's now 8-3. The loser was Bob Haverhill. The Dynamos now have a mark of 51-36.

Detroit used the timely hitting of Tommy Griffin to capture the win. The third baseman socked a 3-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Dynamos ahead, 6-2. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"We're leading the horse race," said Johnson. "But we're not yet in the home stretch."
