The Detroit Giants earned a win at Ballpark of Detroit, stopping the Syracuse Scorpions, 5-1. Starting pitcher Efrain Gutierrez played a big role in his team's success. Devin Wickliffe got credit for the win, improving to 2-2. He allowed 1 run on 4 hits in 2.2 innings. Detroit has won 3 straight, while Syracuse has lost 3 in a row.

The game was at a stalemate until left fielder Ben Shafer came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Syracuse pitcher Eric Willhite, he hit a 1-1 slider for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Detroit on top, 2-1.

"It's always a heck of a lot easier to get to sleep after a win," Shafer told the Detroit Today. "I know I'll rest easy tonight."
