Provincials Earn Late 5-4 Win
Bill Lucier was instrumental in his team's 5-4 triumph over the Cleveland Clippers. The left fielder was 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 2 for the Toronto Provincials. Toronto starter Henry Clancy was credited with the win after throwing 132 pitches over 9 innings. His record now stands at 1-0. The Clippers fall to 6-12 and continue their lackluster start to the 1888 season.

Merritt Hunter, who is tied for 5th in the IA in extra base hits with 6, helped out the Toronto cause in the top of the seventh inning with a run-scoring single. For the game, the right fielder went 1 for 5. He drove in 2 runs.

Toronto manager commended his team for "doing what it takes to win."
