The Detroit Giants defeated the Austin Desperados, 4-1, at Ballpark of Detroit. Glenn Valentine, who finished 4th in the AC in stolen bases with 64 last year, was a standout performer for Detroit. His 4 hits included 1 single and 3 doubles -- this in addition to the 2 runs he scored and 1 he knocked in. Devin Wickliffe sewed up the save, his 2nd. The loss makes Austin 1-2.

In the bottom of the first, Jalen Joyner delivered a clutch hit. With two gone and the bases loaded, the Detroit right fielder hit a run-scoring single, putting the Giants in front, 4-1.

"At the end of the day, it's always about your starting pitcher," said Detroit skipper Sean O'Leary.
