Dynamos Defeat Pioneers in 13
The home team gave their fans plenty to cheer about, with a thrilling walk-off win.

In a tight contest at Thompson Field, the Detroit Dynamos edged the St. Louis Pioneers by the score of 8-7 in 13 innings. Detroit first baseman Ray Waggoner, who blasted 1 home run, was a key contributor. Bill Follis snagged the win in relief. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 1 hit over 2 innings. He's now 1-0 on the season.

Detroit got a knockout punch from Dan Smith. The pinch hitter hammered a 2-run home run in the bottom of the 13th inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"The crowd went nuts," Smith said.

The 6th-place Dynamos are now 40-54, the Pioneers 58-37.
