Davis Goes Deep Twice, Helps Wolverines Top Red Sox, 10-6
The Detroit Wolverines knocked off the Memphis Red Sox, 10-6, at Fenway Park. Chili Davis was a big reason Detroit won. The center fielder went 4-5 with 2 home runs and 2 doubles. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Memphis has now lost 4 consecutive games.

Detroit used the hitting of Hank Greenberg to pick up the win. The first baseman clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Wolverines on top, 3-0. For the game, Greenberg had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Winning never gets dull," said Greenberg.
