Spiders Flatten Cuban Giants, 11-2
The Cleveland Spiders soundly defeated the Miami Cuban Giants, 11-2, at League Park. Steve Sax let his bat do the talking. He went 3 for 4 with 3 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3 for Cleveland. The win gives Cleveland a season record of 47-37.

A key moment came with two out in the bottom of the second. That's when Sax hit a sinker from Martín Dihigo for a 2-run single, putting Cleveland up, 2-0.

"We put our best foot forward tonight," said a smiling Sax.
