Detroit Wins, Lutz drives in 3 runs
Chris Lutz was instrumental in his team's 9-2 triumph over the Toronto Trash Pandas. The designated hitter went 1 for 2 with a home run and 3 walks. He scored 3 runs and drove in 3 for the Detroit Giants. Justin Thompson, who is tied for 7th in the AC in wins with 10, was the winner. He's now 10-7. The loser was Winston Caballero. The Giants now have a record of 59-51 with the win over Toronto.

Lutz made an early impact for Detroit when he stroked his 27th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which came in the top of the second, put the Giants on top, 5-0.

"I think we did a good job of looking for pitches we wanted to hit and put good swings on them," said Detroit skipper Sean O'Leary.
