Raucous Ballpark of Detroit Crowd Propels Giants to 3-0 Victory; Series Tied at 1
The Detroit Giants knotted up the Wildcard Game at Ballpark of Detroit, thanks in large part to starter Mike Wroten. Wroten quieted the Austin Desperados, enabling Detroit to grab the 3-0 win and move into a 1-1 tie in the best-of-3 series.

Wroten, a native of Manchester, New Hampshire, was dealing all game. He kept Austin hitters off-balance, while giving the Giants 7 quality innings. Wroten threw 107 pitches, allowing 3 hits and striking out 10.

"Mike was pounding the zone," said Detroit manager Sean O'Leary.

Game 3 is scheduled for Monday at Dell Diamond in Austin.
