The Cleveland Clippers beat the Toronto Provincials, 9-6, at Garrison Common Grounds. Cleveland right fielder Victor Glaspie, who finished 5th in the FL in extra base hits with 35 in 1879, collected 2 singles and 2 doubles with 3 RBI. The winning pitcher was Weldon Skinner. He's now 4-18. He went 9 innings, allowing 6 runs on 6 hits for the Clippers. The win puts Cleveland at 30-61.

Bill Berglund had a key at-bat with two out in the top of the fifth for Cleveland. With the bases loaded and the Clippers leading 6-4, he drew a walk, driving in 1 run.

"Win or lose, we pick each other up in this clubhouse," Glaspie told the Cleveland Bulletin.
