Spiders Nip Orioles, 8-7
Despite a fine performance by second baseman Dusty Miller, the Baltimore Orioles lost to the Cleveland Spiders, 8-7. Miller was 4 for 6 with a triple, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. Cleveland reliever Bert Parker picked up the win, upping his record to 2-4. Doc Amole took the loss. With this game in the books, Cleveland is 40-63, Baltimore 44-59.

When he came to bat in the bottom of the 11th, Mike Young had a chance to be the hero. Baltimore pitcher Doc Amole had other ideas. But with two outs, Young reached on an error by the 1B, driving in 1 run. The Spiders had themselves a dramatic win.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Cleveland manager Robert Armstrong.
