Sturgeons Score Late, Topple Vulcans, 10-6
Benefiting from Buck Everitt's productive game, the Detroit Sturgeons downed the Pittsburgh Vulcans, 10-6. Everitt went 4 for 5 with 2 doubles and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Sturgeons. Detroit has now reeled off 6 straight wins.

Napoleon Crane provided a timely hit. The Detroit first baseman delivered a bases-clearing triple in the top of the eighth inning to put the Sturgeons on top, 9-6. It was his only hit in the game, but he made it count.

"We've been playing some good baseball," Crane told the Detroit Daily News. "We're aggressive and focused on what we're going to do on the field and getting it done."
