  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Los Angeles Suns (46-28) 1 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 3 13 1
Detroit Dynamos (21-51) 2 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 4 7 0
Detroit Rallies for 4-3 Victory
Despite a fine performance by third baseman Skeeter Graham, the Los Angeles Suns lost to the Detroit Dynamos, 4-3. Graham went 4 for 5 with 4 singles. Yes, it was a win for Detroit; but their 21-51 mark is nothing to crow about.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth, an error by the Suns allowed the Dynamos to score the winning run.

"I liked the focus, I liked the effort," said Dynamos manager Roger Cleaves.
