Detroit Downed, 5-3, by Empire
The Twin City Empire beat the Detroit Giants, 5-3, at The Old Grounds. Twin City third baseman Merrill Fellowes had an outstanding performance. He went 3 for 4 with 3 singles. He drove in 3 runs. The first-place Empire, at 59-33, now lead their division by 8 games.

Had Fellowes not come through in the top of the eighth, who knows how the game would've ended? But with two down, Fellowes hit a run-scoring single. The Empire took the lead, 4-3, and never looked back.

Fellowes called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."
