Spiders Deal Wolverines 9-6 Loss
The Cleveland Spiders weathered an outstanding game by Detroit right fielder Al Kaline to topple the Wolverines, 9-6. Kaline went 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Terry Adams was called on to finish, recording his 3rd save. The defeat makes Detroit 6-9.

Cleveland won the game in part because of Ron Blomberg. The designated hitter ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Spiders ahead, 2-0. For the game, Blomberg had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Blomberg.
