Sturgeons Drop Cyclones, 5-4
In the 5-4 Detroit win over Chicago, the impact of Dave Greene was substantial. Greene, who finished 5th in the FL in triples with 12 in 1885, went 2-3 with a double and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. The Sturgeons have an impressive 25-16 record.

Detroit took a 4-3 lead on Napoleon Crane's 11th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Crane hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Chicago pitcher Harlan Akins visibly frustrated.

"This was a good win," said Crane.
