Murray Helps Baltimore Outscore Detroit
Getting a good performance from first baseman Eddie Murray, the Baltimore Black Sox defeated the Detroit Wolverines, 13-12. Murray was 2 for 2 with a home run, a double, and 3 walks, while scoring 4 for the Black Sox. Emil Yde, now 1-0, was credited with the win in 1 innings of relief. He allowed 2 runs on 3 hits, while striking out 1 and walking 0. Buddy Groom converted his 13th save in 15 tries.

Earl Averill came through with a big-time hit for Baltimore. The right fielder smacked a 3-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to give his team the lead, 13-10. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"Very pleased with the effort on our side," said Averill.

The Baltimore winning streak has reached 3 games.
