Behind a solid performance from left fielder George Hogriever, the Boston Reds defeated the Cleveland Spiders, 7-5. Hogriever went 4-5 with a triple, a double, and 2 singles for the Reds. Scott Stratton, credited with the win, is now 6-9. He allowed 5 runs on 17 hits in 9 innings. The 4th-place Reds lifted their record to 23-23.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Phil Reccius? The Boston center fielder had a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Reds on top, 3-2. For the game, Reccius had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We're all about heart and hustle on this team. That's what wins ballgames," Hogriever told the Boston Times.
