Wolverines Victors, 5-4, at San Francisco
The Detroit Wolverines trumped the San Francisco Sea Lions, 5-4, at Oracle Park. Detroit designated hitter J. D. Martinez was terrific. He slugged 2 home runs. Mike Henneman converted his 25th save in 29 tries. The Wolverines now own a record of 77-79.

Martinez had a game-changing home run in the top of the seventh. On a first pitch sinker from Tim Hudson, he banged a solo home run to left, giving the Wolverines a 5-4 lead. It was the 16th home run of the year for Martinez.

Detroit manager Daniel Makonnen called it "a good, solid win."
