The Detroit Giants picked up a win at The Old Grounds, knocking off the Cleveland Athletics, 7-1. Starting pitcher James Watkins was a big reason why. Watkins, now 9-16, was the winner. In 8.2 innings, he gave up 8 hits, while striking out 6, walking 1, and allowing 1 run. With this game in the books, Detroit is 55-56, Cleveland 47-64.

Joseph Ogle came through for Detroit when he hit a run-scoring single in the bottom of the fifth. With a runner on 2nd, he hit a 0-2 sinker to center field, staking his team to a 2-1 lead.

Watkins attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."
