Crane goes 3-for-5 in Detroit Win
Napoleon Crane was a vital contributor to the 11-6 Detroit victory over Louisville. The Sturgeons first baseman was 3-5 with a triple and a double, while adding 6 RBI and scoring once. The second-place Colts dropped to 41-27.

The game turned with no one out in the top of the fourth. That's when Crane hit a bases-clearing triple off Ed Lane. It propelled the Sturgeons into the lead, 4-1.

"It's nice to step up when your team needs you," said Crane.
