Fans saw a dandy of a game between the Detroit Dynamos and Chicago Chiefs.

Detroit Dynamos starter Paul Anderson pitched a strong game against the Chicago Chiefs at Thompson Field, leading the Dynamos to victory, 3-2. Detroit currently is in 7th place in the Federal Association at 42-56.

Pat Petty, who finished 3rd in the CA in doubles with 41 in 1948, chipped in a solo home run for Detroit in the bottom of the seventh. For the game, the right fielder had 2 hits in 3 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 1 RBI.

"Scoring runs is scoring runs," said Detroit skipper Verlin Alexander. "It's important to have different ways to do it."
