Wolverines Thwart Spiders, 7-5
Ty Cobb had a 3-RBI game, during Detroit's 7-5 triumph over the Cleveland Spiders. Cobb contributed 1 single and 1 home run to the cause. The Wolverines improved their record to 43-54 by beating Cleveland.

Detroit took a 6-3 lead on Chili Davis's 24th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Davis hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Cleveland pitcher Steve Gromek visibly frustrated.

"Being able to play a game for a living is one thing. Being able to play it well and contribute to a win is even better," Davis told the Detroit Bulletin.
