Red Sox Sunk by Spiders
Cy Young, who is tied for 2nd in the AL in complete games with 2, propelled his team to victory over the Memphis Red Sox. The final score was 5-4, Cleveland. The winner was Young. He threw 6.2 innings of 3-hit ball. The loser was Stubby Overmire. The first-place Spiders have a one-game lead in their division.

Ron Blomberg had a big bases-clearing double for the Spiders in the bottom of the sixth inning. With Cleveland leading 2-1 and the bases loaded, he got a curveball from Stubby Overmire, who is tied for 7th in the AL in innings pitched with 143.0, and swatted a double to left. It was his 19th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Spiders ahead, 5-1.

"We were the better team," crowed Blomberg.
