In a close game at Cream City Grounds, the Milwaukee Creams edged the Cleveland Blue Caps, 5-4. Milwaukee right fielder Napoleon Crane stood apart with his performance. He was 3-4 with 3 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Norm Schmitt picked up the win, improving his season record to 16-28. He struck out 3 in 9 innings. The Creams now own a record of 24-46.

Crane contributed in the bottom of the third. With runners on 2nd and 3rd, he hit a 2-run single. It was one at-bat among others that helped Milwaukee get the win.

"If it's down the middle," said Crane, "you might as well hit it."
