Cleveland pitcher Eddie Montague had a large part in his team beating the Boston Brahmins, 4-3. The right-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. With the loss, Boston is 6-3.

Joe Taylor came through with a big-time hit for Cleveland. The second baseman smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 4-3. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

Taylor attributed the win to his team's "steely resolve."
