Blue Gills Win at Los Angeles, 4-3
The Detroit Blue Gills downed the Los Angeles Stars, 4-3, at Field of the Stars. The Blue Gills were led by Ismael Esparza. Esparza went 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 doubles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. Osman Sumbatashvili wrapped it up, recording his 9th save. With their winning streak at 5, the Blue Gills have raced to a strong start this season.

Detroit used a clutch at-bat from Cheng-qian Da to capture the win. The left fielder hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Blue Gills ahead, 3-1. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"It was sure nice to get the win but there's a lot of baseball left," Esparza after the game.
