Traverse City Makes It 6 Straight with 2-1 Win
The Den was host to some action-packed drama.

Detroit got a valiant performance from pitcher Noriyuki Sakuma, but it wasn't enough to beat the Traverse City Bears. Traverse City won the game, 2-1. Sakuma threw 7.2 innings of 6-hit ball for the losing team. Traverse City reliever Ward Covey picked up the win, upping his record to 1-1. Julien Bérard shouldered the loss.

The Bears procured the win, in large part because of second baseman Gary Ford. In the bottom of the 11th, he produced the game-winning run-scoring single.

Ford said afterward that he was "glad the fans were treated to a good ballgame."

Traverse City is now 29-18, 2 games up in the South of the Border.
