Spiders Take Down Senators, 3-2
The Cleveland Spiders called upon starter Sid Kitson, and he delivered, leading his team to victory over the Washington Senators, 3-2. Kitson got the win, improving to 18-24. He allowed 8 hits and walked 4 over 12 innings. Kitson allowed 2 runs. The 7th-place Spiders are now 57-82, the Senators 74-65.

The Spiders procured the win, in large part because of right fielder Harry Blake. In the bottom of the 12th, he produced the game-winning run-scoring single.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Kitson.
