The St. Louis Browns downed the Cleveland Spiders, 5-4, at Sportsman's Park I. The Browns were led by Charlie Duffee. He went 2 for 4 with a home run. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Bob Caruthers, credited with the win, is now 11-7. He allowed 4 runs on 9 hits in 9 innings. At 34-18, the Browns are currently second in the American League.

St. Louis took a 5-4 lead on Deacon McGuire's 11th double of the season. The 2-run double, which McGuire hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Cleveland pitcher Sid Kitson shaking his head.

"You get some opportunities, you better take advantage of them," said Cleveland manager Robert Armstrong.
