| Dynamos Earn 4-3 Home Win | The Detroit Dynamos knocked off the New York Gothams, 4-3, at Thompson Field. Ed Holt was a big reason Detroit won. The catcher was 4 for 4 with a home run and 3 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Howie French, now 13-7, was credited with the win in 2 innings of relief. He allowed 1 run on 2 hits, while striking out 2 and walking 3. Larry Beebe collected his 2nd save.
Dick Tucker went 1 for 4 for Detroit. The 29-year old second baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the seventh. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Jim Hawkins. It was his 82nd RBI of the season.
"I like our moxie," said Dynamos manager Verlin Alexander.
Detroit is 81-50 and New York, with the loss, 61-70.
