Giants Win at Cincinnati, 6-3
Mike Wroten, who is on pace for 209 strikeouts this season, had a strong outing for the Detroit Giants against the Cincinnati Royals at The Castle. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 6-3 win. The winner was Wroten. He threw 8.0 innings of 6-hit ball. The loser was Josh Oakman. The Giants go to 53-41, putting them second in the American Conference North East Division.

Detroit used a clutch hit from Ramon Dozal to get the win. The third baseman drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Giants ahead, 5-2. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Win or lose, we pick each other up in this clubhouse," Wroten told the Detroit Times.
