| Dynamos Win Again, 6-2, Extend Streak to 6 | Getting an impressive start from Bob Arman, Detroit beat St. Louis by the score of 6-2. Arman, the winner, moves to 10-8. He threw 8.2 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 6 and giving up 2 walks. Jack Halbur closed out the game, earning his 7th save.
Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Edwin Hackberry? The 1947 Kellogg Award winner Hackberry stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put Detroit up, 6-2. For the game, he was 2 for 3, including 1 double and 1 single.
"You just play the game as right as you can and see where you end up," said Dynamos manager Dick York.
The first-place Dynamos, at 55-36, lead the Federal Association by 3 games.
