Detroit picked up a win at Riverside Park, bumping off the Philadelphia Unions, 7-2. Pitcher Cy Verret was a major reason the Sturgeons emerged victorious. The Sturgeons sport a record of 59-33.

Sam Booth hit a run-scoring double off Jack Malley in the bottom of the seventh, which put the Sturgeons in front, 3-2. In addition to the double, Booth had 1 single and 1 walk, while going 2 for 4.

"It's easier to pitch when you get run support," said Verret.
