Shaw, Clippers Beat Pilots, 11-5
Ed Shaw led Cleveland to a win over St. Louis. The final score was 11-5. Shaw collected 2 runs batted in, while going 4 for 5 at the plate. The left fielder also scored 3 times. The last-place Clippers improved to 33-73.

The Pilots had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Clippers going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the 23-year old center fielder Nathan Shiffing came to the plate. Shiffing hit a solo home run on a first pitch fastball from St. Louis hurler Ajax McFadden. It was Shiffing's 1st home run of the year.

"It's always fun to score a lot of runs," said Shaw.
