Browns Drop Reds, 10-4
The performance of Bob Caruthers proved critical in helping St. Louis beat Boston, 10-4. The Browns right fielder was 3 for 4 with 2 doubles and a walk. He scored 2 times. Jack Stivetts picked up the win, improving his season record to 11-5. He struck out 2 in 9 innings. The Browns sport a record of 38-19.

It could have been a different outcome for St. Louis, had it not been for Charlie Duffee, the 1896 AL home run champion . Duffee contributed a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put St. Louis up, 7-4.

"Good win for us," said Duffee. "Now we'll focus on the next one."
