Yankees Deal Detroit 7-3 Defeat
Lou Gehrig made an impact in the 7-3 New York win over Detroit. Gehrig, who leads the AL in triples with 14, was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. The winning pitcher was Lefty Gomez. He's now 12-9. He went 7 innings, allowing 2 runs on 8 hits for the Yankees. The win boosted New York to 69-44.

Frankie Crosetti had a big solo home run for the Yankees in the bottom of the fifth inning. With New York leading 3-2 and the bases empty, he got a sinker from Justin Verlander, who is tied for 5th in the AL with a 8.6 K/9 rate, and swatted a home run to left-center. It was his 1st home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Yankees ahead, 4-2.

"It doesn't matter if you're 10 games over .500 or 10 games under, it feels good to win," Crosetti told the New York Times.
