The Cleveland Blue Caps locked up a win at Cream City Grounds, knocking off the Milwaukee Creams, 4-3. On the mound for Cleveland was right-hander Dan Hicks. He played a major role in the triumph.

Dick Stubbs, who finished 2nd in the FL in slugging percentage with .513 in 1881, had a direct impact on the outcome. Stubbs contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the fifth inning to put Cleveland up, 4-3.

Stubbs attributed the win to "everyone pulling their weight."
