Whistlers Drop Giants, 6-3
The game between Boston and Detroit is in the books, despite a little rain.

Boston Whistlers starter Matthew Rowlands was locked-in. He led his team to a win over the Detroit Giants, 6-3. Rowlands, now 1-0, was the winner. In 5 innings, he gave up 3 hits, while striking out 8, walking 4, and allowing 1 run.

The Whistlers benefited from an error in the top of the fourth inning. Boston was leading 1-0 when Tim Lotz hit a 2-run single that was misplayed. It put Boston in front, 3-0.

"It's about putting our team in the best position to win ballgames," said Rowlands.

The loss drops Detroit to 2-2.
