Wolverines Win Squeaker, 6-5, Over American Giants
The rain could not keep the home crowd from enjoying a good ballgame.

The Detroit Wolverines topped the Chicago American Giants by a score of 6-5. Leading the way was right fielder Ty Cobb. Cobb was 2-4 with a double and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Wolverines. Detroit goes to 3-0.

The game was decided with two out in the bottom of the ninth. With Detroit trailing 5-4, Cobb hit a slider from A. J. Minter for a 2-run double. In the blink of an eye, the Wolverines had a walk-off win.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Cobb.
