Suns Rally to Win
Wilshire Park played host to some high drama.

The Los Angeles Suns downed the Detroit Dynamos, 5-4, in 12 innings at Wilshire Park. The Suns were led by Bill Burke. Burke went 4 for 5 with a home run and 3 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. The Suns go to 46-87, putting them 9th in the Federal Association.

The climactic moment came in the bottom of the 12th for Los Angeles. That's when 25-year old shortstop Sam Gallick hit a run-scoring double off Larry Beebe to win the game. The home crowd erupted in celebration.

"Always feels extra good winning this kind of game," said Burke.
