Unions Top Detroit, 5-4
The Philadelphia Unions picked up a win at Girard Grounds, knocking off the Detroit Sturgeons, 5-4. Starting pitcher Mike McCord was a big reason why. McCord yielded 4 runs over 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 2, and struck out 2. His record improves to 17-30. Philadelphia bumps their record to 34-46 with the win.

Up to bat in the bottom of the ninth, 29-year old right fielder Leo Showalter had a chance to be the hero. Detroit pitcher Aaron Eubank wanted to foil that plan. But with one out, Showalter hit a sacrifice fly. The Unions had themselves a thrilling win.

"This house was rockin'," Showalter said.
