Los Angeles Dealt 5-3 Defeat
Detroit pitcher Jack Vander Kooi did his part in helping his team beat the Los Angeles Suns, 5-3. The left-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. Detroit reliever Pedro Castro picked up the win, upping his record to 3-0. George Cox absorbed the loss. Los Angeles is 17-10 after the loss.

Detroit took a 4-3 lead on Red Standish's 1st home run of the season. The solo home run, which Standish hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Los Angeles pitcher George Cox visibly frustrated.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Standish.
