Spiders Get Clutch Win Versus Detroit
The Cleveland Spiders beat the Detroit Wolverines, 6-5, at League Park. Ron Blomberg, who finished 2nd in the AL in runs with 109 last year, starred for Cleveland. He was 2 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. Cleveland pitcher Ron Reed got the win, upping his record to 3-2. Chad Bradford got the loss. The win puts Cleveland at 26-21 this season.

The game was decided with two out in the bottom of the ninth. With Cleveland trailing 5-4, Blomberg jumped on a slider from 29-year old right-handed pitcher Chad Bradford and hit a 2-run home run to left-center. With one swing, the Spiders had a walk-off win.

"Say want you want about this team, they play nine innings hard," said Cleveland manager Daniel Makonnen.
