Bill Silvers, who finished 5th in the IA in batting average with .294 in 1882, was locked in. The right-hander led the Baltimore Bannermen to a 7-2 win against the Cleveland Clippers at Banner Field. At 63-68, Baltimore is in 6th place in the International Association.

An inflection point occurred with no one out in the bottom of the third. That's when Bannermen second baseman Israel Thompson hit a fastball from Dan Hicks for a 2-run single. Just like that, Baltimore was up, 2-1.

Silvers attributed the win to his team's "focus and intensity."
