Reds Deal Orioles 8-6 Loss
With catcher Lave Cross leading the charge, the Boston Reds defeated the Baltimore Orioles, 8-6, at Union Park. Cross, who finished 2nd in the AL in RBI with 84 in 1890, was 4-6 with a double, 3 singles, and a walk. Boston is 75-62 and Baltimore, with the loss, 66-71.

Boston used the timely hitting of Jesse Sexton to capture the win. The pinch hitter socked a 2-run home run in the top of the 12th inning to put the Reds ahead, 8-6. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a big one.

"No one wins," Sexton said, "without the will to win."
