American Giants Get Extra-Inning, 5-4 Win
Chicago first baseman Paul Konerko contributed significantly to his team's 5-4 win over the Detroit Wolverines. Konerko, who is tied for 2nd in the AL with a .450 on-base percentage, went 2 for 4 with 3 runs scored to lead the offensive attack for the American Giants. With the victory, the American Giants upped their record to 22-13.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the tenth. With two out, Konerko hit a sinker from Buddy Napier for a solo home run. The American Giants, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Konerko.
