Dynamos Turn Away Minutemen, 3-2
Detroit turned a good performance from Howie French into a 3-2 triumph over the Boston Minutemen at Thompson Field. French, who signed a 2-year contract worth $320,000 on 03/02/1962, went the distance for Detroit. He gave up 2 runs on 6 hits. The win puts Detroit at 3-2.

The Dynamos got a big at-bat from shortstop Joe Reed. For the game, Reed was 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the fourth, with runners on 1st and 2nd, he stroked a 3-run home run. His 1st home run of the season gave Detroit a 3-0 lead.

"If you want to be considered a good team, these are the kind of games you have to win," said Detroit manager Verlin Alexander.
