Excelsiors Win at Cincinnati, 10-3
The New York Excelsiors picked up a win at Queen City Grounds I, dropping the Cincinnati Monarchs, 10-3. Candy Lemmons, who led the IA in strikeouts with 207 in 1883, was the difference-maker. The 'W' lifts New York's record to 69-61.

Carl Collins had a big run-scoring double for the Excelsiors in the top of the first inning. With New York leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from John Babbitt and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 32nd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Excelsiors ahead, 2-0.

"We'll kick back tonight and enjoy this win," said Lemmons.
