Detroit Sturgeons starter Bill Poole turned in an exceptional performance against the Washington Federals at Capitol Park, resulting in a Detroit win, 4-2. In 9 innings, Poole surrendered 4 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 3. He allowed 2 runs. The win puts Detroit at 21-12 this season.

Detroit used a timely hit from Buck Everitt to get the win. The second baseman stroked a 2-run double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Sturgeons ahead, 4-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"We made a couple of mistakes," said Washington skipper , "and it cost us."
