Dynamos Win, 7-6, Versus St. Louis
The 7-6 Detroit win over St. Louis was due largely to Jack Lucas. The Dynamos third baseman went 3-4 with 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Detroit reliever Charlie Christianson was the winner. His record is now 7-6. The losing pitcher was Lloyd Ethridge. The Dynamos go to 38-71, putting them last in the Federal Association West.

The game-ending blow was delivered by Don Brown in the bottom of the ninth. That's when he hit a run-scoring double off 31-year old right-handed pitcher Lloyd Ethridge to win it for Detroit and cause the home crowd to erupt in celebration.

"Great to get the crowd on its feet," Lucas said.
