The Cleveland Clippers topped the New York Excelsiors, 5-3, in International Association action at Excelsior Grounds. The game was highlighted by the performance of Cleveland pitcher Paul Jackson. Jackson, now 8-14, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 3, walking 1, and allowing 3 runs. The last-place Clippers improved to 24-52.

Cleveland took advantage of an error in the top of the ninth inning. The game was tied, 3-3, when Perry Manahan hit a 2-run single that was misplayed. It put the Clippers in front, 5-3.

"I think it speaks for itself, I think we came out and we played our kind of baseball," said Manahan.
