Spiders Roll Over Wolverines, 9-2
The Detroit Wolverines went down to defeat to Bill Steen and his Cleveland teammates. The final score was 9-2 in favor of the Spiders. This win makes it 5 in a row for Cleveland.

Cleveland used a well-timed hit by Sammy Strang to capture the win. The second baseman socked a bases-clearing double in the top of the second inning to put the Spiders ahead, 5-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"The name of the game is scoring runs," Strang said. "We did a good job of that today."
