Kellum, Suns Too Much for Dynamos
The 6-3 Los Angeles win over Detroit was due in large part to Eddie Kellum. The Suns third baseman was 4-5 with a home run and 3 doubles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Los Angeles starter Heinie Schmidt was credited with the win after throwing 138 pitches over 8.2 innings. His record now stands at 9-3. Now 19-49, Detroit has dropped 11 straight.

Tom Lally, who finished 3rd in the FA in extra base hits with 60 last year, contributed to the Los Angeles win with a 2-run home run in the bottom of the third. For the game, the shortstop had 3 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 2 singles, 2 runs scored, and 2 runs batted in.

"This game will humble you at times and you've got to buck up and deal with it," said Detroit manager Roger Cleaves.
