Spiders Bank 11-2 Win
Riding the 2-hit performance of the 37-year old catcher Ed Bailey, the Cleveland Spiders stopped the Baltimore Black Sox, 11-2. The winning pitcher was Bill Steen. His record now stands at 1-1. The right-hander went 7 innings, allowing 2 runs on 4 hits for the Spiders. The Black Sox fall to 6-11 and continue their unimpressive start to the 2002 season.

With Cleveland leading 8-1 in the bottom of the sixth, Bailey came up to bat against Baltimore pitcher Gregg Olson. Bailey hit a fastball to right-center for a 3-run home run. His 4th home run of the season put the Spiders on top, 11-1.

"Winning is hard sometimes," said Spiders manager Daniel Makonnen. "This one was nice to get."
