Clippers Losers, 4-2, Versus Montreal
Tom Fowler powered the Montreal Tigers to a win over the Cleveland Clippers. The final score was 4-2. The Montreal catcher, who led the IA in extra base hits with 57 in 1884, was a force to be reckoned with. He banged out 2 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 1 double. Montreal has now won 3 in a row.

With Montreal trailing 2-1 in the bottom of the fourth, Fowler hit a screwball from Dan Hicks for a 2-run home run. It was his 7th home run of the season and put the Tigers ahead, 3-2.

Fowler attributed the win to his team's "grittiness."
