The Detroit Dynamos topped the Philadelphia Keystones, 9-4, at Thompson Field. Detroit catcher Lew Mercer was a spark plug for the offense. He went 2 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Paul Anderson, who went 9 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 4 runs on 5 hits, while walking 5 and striking out 9. His record now stands at 5-0. The win gives Detroit a season record of 22-11.

With Detroit leading 2-0 in the bottom of the third, Mercer hit a curveball from Tom Robinson for a 3-run home run. It was his 1st home run of the season and put the Dynamos ahead, 5-0.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Mercer.
