Philadelphia Downs Detroit, 7-2
The Philadelphia Stars finished off the Detroit Wolverines, 7-2. Much of the credit belonged to left fielder Harmon Killebrew. Killebrew was 1 for 2 with a double and 2 walks, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Stars. The winning pitcher was J.M. Ward. He's now 3-1. He went 5.1 innings, allowing 2 runs on 6 hits for the Stars. The victory makes Philadelphia 15-7, as the team seeks a return to the playoffs in 2002.

Bill Dickey had a big 3-run home run for the Stars in the bottom of the third inning. With Philadelphia leading 2-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a fastball from 22-year old left-handed pitcher Hal Newhouser and punished it. The result was his 2nd home run of the season, which put the Stars on top, 5-0.

"Solid game, solid win tonight," said a smiling Killebrew.
