Poole Leads Sturgeons to Win
Detroit Sturgeons starter Bill Poole found his groove in his team's 12-9 win over the New York Barons. The win elevated the Sturgeons to 70-38.

Detroit won the game in part because of Harry Ransom. The catcher ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Sturgeons ahead, 8-6. For the game, Ransom had 1 double and 1 home run in 4 at-bats.

"Crazy game," said Ransom after it ended.
