Excelsiors Edge Clippers, 8-7
The New York Excelsiors beat the Cleveland Clippers, 8-7, at Lakefront Park. Jim Copple was 3-4 with 3 singles, while scoring 2 times. The 31-year old shortstop was a menace to Cleveland all day. Candy Lemmons, the winning pitcher, improved to 10-20. He pitched 9 innings, giving up 13 hits and 7 runs, while striking out 5 and walking 1. New York is now 22-44, Cleveland 22-45.

Willis Gaylord drew 1 walk for New York. The 38-year old shortstop had a key at-bat in the top of the ninth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 7-7 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Alfie Briscoe. It was his 25th RBI of the season.

"We'll grab a cold beverage tonight and go after another win tomorrow," Copple said.
