Luke Scrimger, who finished 4th in the AC in wins with 17 in 2019, propelled his team to victory over the Detroit Giants. The final score was 5-2, Austin. Scrimger yielded 2 runs over 6.2 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 2, and struck out 6. His record improves to 5-5. The losing streak for Detroit has now reached 7 games.

The Desperados got a big at-bat from first baseman Drew Riggi. For the game, Riggi went 1 for 4 with a triple. He drove in 2 runs. In the top of the first, with runners on 1st and 3rd, he stroked a 2-run triple. His 3rd triple of the season gave Austin a 2-0 lead.

"Winning is the only thing that really matters," Scrimger told the Austin Citizen. "If you can win without even breaking a sweat, more power to you."
