| Waggoner 3-for-3, Leads Dynamos to Win | Ray Waggoner was instrumental in his team's 5-3 triumph over the Los Angeles Suns. The left fielder was 3-3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3 and driving in 2 for the Detroit Dynamos. Los Angeles's current losing streak has reached 4 games.
Virgil Ewing drew 1 walk. He drove in 2 runs for Detroit. The 28-year old third baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 3-3 tie with a run-scoring walk off Whitey Stewart. It was his 43rd walk of the season.
"We're in a marathon, not a sprint," Waggoner said in postgame remarks. "Soon enough, the finish line will be in sight."
