Chiefs Pop Dynamos, 9-4
With catcher Chris Wells leading the charge, the Chicago Chiefs defeated the Detroit Dynamos, 9-4, at Thompson Field. Wells, who is tied for 2nd in the FA in triples with 8, was 2 for 5 with 2 doubles. He scored 3 runs. Troy Myers picked up the win with 6 innings of work. He allowed 4 runs on 9 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 2. On the season, he is now 8-6. The current losing streak for Detroit has reached 4 games.

In the bottom of the seventh, Jose Chavez stood in the box, looking for a pitch to hammer. The Dynamos were trailing 7-4, but had runners on 1st and 2nd. That's when Phil Murphy made a terrific pitch and Chavez lined out. Gone was the dream of a Detroit comeback.
