Monarchs Drop 7-6 Decision
The Cleveland Spiders beat the Kansas City Monarchs, 7-6, at Muehlebach Field. Lance Berkman, in particular, was impressive. He went 2-5 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. The first-place Spiders, at 64-49, now lead their division by 5 games.

Cleveland took a 7-2 lead on Berkman's 8th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which he hit off Joe Blong in the top of the seventh, propelled Cleveland to the win.

"We're one win closer to our goal," Berkman said in postgame remarks.
