Giants Win, 7-1, Extend Streak to 4 Games
The Detroit Giants downed the Halifax Heathens, 7-1, at Ballpark of Detroit. The Giants were led by Chris Lutz. Lutz went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 3 times and drove in 2. Detroit has run its win streak to 4 in a row.

Keith Brosch had a big 2-run double for the Giants in the bottom of the sixth inning. With Detroit leading 3-1 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a sinker from Jeff Buck, who finished 3rd in the NC in saves with 32 in 2018, and swatted a double to left-center. It was his 20th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Giants ahead, 5-1.

"It's nice to come out on top today," said Brosch.
