  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Baltimore Orioles (8-10) 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 2 7 4
Cleveland Spiders (5-13) 0 2 0 3 1 0 0 8 X 14 14 1
Spiders Bludgeon Orioles, 14-2
The home crowd had a good time watching the Baltimore Orioles and Cleveland Spiders get after it.

Mike Young led Cleveland to a win over Baltimore. The final score was 14-2. Young collected 3 runs batted in, while going 3 for 5 at the plate. The shortstop also scored 3 times. The Orioles fall to 8-10 and continue their uninspiring start to the 1897 season.

Cleveland pitcher John Henry contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the second. With two down, he hit a changeup into center field for a 2-run single. It was his 1st hit of the season and put the Spiders ahead, 2-0.

Baltimore manager Pete Fries called the blowout loss "just something that happens from time to time."
