Claiborne Lifts Barons to 16-10 Triumph
The New York Barons defeated the Pittsburgh Vulcans, 16-10, at Vulcan Grounds. Dave Claiborne, who finished 2nd in the FL in hits with 140 in 1883, was a standout performer for New York. His 4 hits included 1 single and 3 doubles -- this in addition to the 2 runs he scored and 5 he knocked in. Ted Carson, the winner, is now 6-4. He struck out 2 and walked 3 over 8.1 innings, while allowing 10 runs on 12 hits. The Barons go to 14-23 with the win.

New York used the hitting of David King to pick up the win. The third baseman clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Barons on top, 16-6. For the game, King had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"I give credit to my teammates for this win. We got it done," King told the New York Daily.
