Cardinals Deal Reds 12-6 Defeat
In baseball, each game is unique. This one was no different.

Klondike Douglass led St. Louis to a win over Cincinnati. The final score was 12-6. Douglass collected 2 runs batted in, while going 4 for 5 at the plate. The catcher also scored 2 times. Pink Hawley, the winning pitcher, improved to 2-0. He pitched 9 innings, giving up 14 hits and 6 runs, while striking out 4 and walking 3.

Pink Hawley dealt the Reds a blow in the top of the second. Batting with the bases loaded and St. Louis trailing 2-1, Hawley, who finished 2nd in the NL in innings pitched with 397.1 in 1895, hit a first pitch slider for a 2-run single.

"This kind of win will certainly make our fans happy," Douglass told the St. Louis Citizen.

The win gives St. Louis a record of 5-2.
