Baltimore Defeated by Detroit, 2-1
The Detroit Dynamos faced a tough opponent in Baltimore pitcher Buck Guthrie, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Thompson Field by a final score of 2-1. Guthrie went 8 innings and allowed 2 runs. Bob Reed, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 6th save. The defeat makes Baltimore 69-61.

Geoff Taylor cracked a home run off Buck Guthrie in the bottom of the first. His 2-run blast put the Dynamos on top, 2-0. In all, Taylor had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 4.

"Every good pitch to hit is a strike," said Taylor. "But not every strike is a good pitch to hit."
