1920 Negro National League Tournament Round 1 - Detroit Stars v Dayton Marcos

George Britt (Day) v Bill Holland (Det)
Dayton  000 010 001 - 2 
Detroit 101 021 11x - 7 

Dominating performance by Holland who received plenty of run support.


Bill Gatewood (Det) v Charley Wilson (Day)
Detroit 010 011 011 - 5 
Dayton  001 010 101 - 4 

The Marcos don't go down without a fight, but go down they do as a ninth rally fizzles with the tying run in scoring position.

The Stars meanwhile advance to the semifinals where they will tangle with the Kansas City Monarchs.
