Though he had a terrific game, John Tennison could not prevent his team, the St. Louis Pilots, from absorbing a loss. Cleveland won the game, 9-6. Tennison went 4 for 4 with 2 doubles and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Weldon Skinner earned the win to go to 3-2. He allowed 6 runs on 10 hits, with 2 walks and 2 strikeouts in 7 innings of work. Cleveland is now 21-46, St. Louis 42-23.

Ed Shaw hit a bases-clearing triple off Ajax McFadden in the bottom of the fourth, which put the Clippers in front, 6-5. In addition to the triple, Shaw had 1 single and 1 walk, while going 2 for 4.

"Nice to get this one," said Shaw. "Wins have been hard to come by."
