Wolverines Move on to Round 2
The Detroit Wolverines have swept the Birmingham Black Barons and are on to the Round 2. Detroit won 4-1 today at Riverwalk Stadium to clinch the Round 1.

"We're happy to have put the dagger in when we had the chance," said Detroit first baseman Hank Greenberg, who was named MVP for the series. "It could have been a tough series to finish if we let them start winning."

Greenberg won the award with a .438 batting average and a .500 on-base percentage. He had 2 home runs, drove in 7 RBI and scored 3 runs.

The Detroit Wolverines don't know who they will face in the next round. They will play the winner of the New York Gothams - Cleveland Spiders series. New York leads the series 3 games to 0. The Round 2 schedule will be announced after the Round 1 finishes.
