4-3 Cincinnati Win Thrills Crowd
The Cincinnati Monarchs did just enough to secure a victory over the New York Excelsiors, 4-3, in 11 innings at Queen City Grounds II. Nobody did more than pitcher Kenneth Ranson. Ranson yielded 3 runs over 11 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 1, and struck out 2. His record improves to 17-10. After today's action, Cincinnati sits at 56-46; New York slips to 35-63.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the 11th. With one out, Ranson hit a fastball from Bill Nolette for a run-scoring single. The Monarchs, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"Exhilarating win," said Ranson.
