Detroit Wolverines (53-32 .624 1.5 GB in 2nd place in the Liberty League) at
Cleveland Spiders (43-42 .506 11 GB in 5th place)

Ed Bush, Det. (25-5.3) (R 6-7 2.57 7.1-3.6-5.7 H-BB-K/9) vs. Jim Ludwig, Clev. (25-4.6) (R 8-14 3.06 10.2-2.7-2.5)

Won - 3 to 0

Bush allowed 4 hits, 3 walks and struck out 4. At bat, he had 2 hits with a double and an RBI. This was his 3rd shutout in only 15 starts. He had 3 for Syracuse before being called up.

Ludwig gave us 8 hits, 2 walks and struck out 4.

We made 1 error and Cleveland made 3.

CF Fred Bianco (26-6.9) had 2 hits and stole a base. 2B Jocko Cole (23-6.1) had 2 hits and scored a run. Our offense has become amazingly consistent at a very mediocre level. In 6 of the last 8 games we have scored exactly 3 runs. In the 2 games we did not, we scored 2 and 4 respectively. I think it is time for a shakeup.

Liberty League:
Cincinnati (3) at Washington (4) in 11 innings: Bill Crawford (27-7.2) (1-0) in his major league debut over John Stevens (28-8.2) (24-16). In 11 innings, Crawford allowed 10 hits, no walks and struck out 6. At bat, he had 2 hit, 2 walks, scored a run and had an RBI that tied the game in the bottom of the 9th. He would have made his debut a lot sooner, but he missed half of last season with a pinched nerve and came up with elbow problems in Spring Training. He certainly looks healthy now and along with Lou Townley (23-3.4) gives the Nationals as good a 1-2 pitching punch as anybody. Stevens allowed 7 hits, 4 walks and struck out 5. 3 errors ended the game in the bottom of the 11th. For the Reds, 2B Jumbo Lynn (25-3.8) strained a rib cage muscle and will miss about 3 weeks.

Troy (0) at New York (5): John Allen (27-6.4) (16-16) over Miah Turner (24-5.3) (21-19). Allen allowed 4 hits, 2 walks and struck out 1. Allen now has 2 shutouts on the season. He has won 6 of his last 7 and the Gothams have won 8 in a row. Turner allowed 12 hits, no walks and struck out 5. CF Lorenzo Chappell (25-5.2) had 3 hits with his 3rd home run of the season and 3rd in the last 2 games. He scored 2 runs and had 2 RBIs. 3B John Reynolds (29-4.5) hit 2 triples, scored a run and had 2 RBIs.

Grand National Association:
Brooklyn (5) at Omaha (18): Tom Lee (27-6.0) (18-6) over Ren French (24-4.9) (4-6). Lee allowed 6 hits, 4 walks and struck out 5. At bat, he had a hit and a walk and scored 2 runs. LF Dave Cunningham (30-5.4) had 3 hits with a triple and a walk, scored 3 runs and had an RBI. 1B Cherokee Finley (33-4.9) had 3 hits with a double and a walk, scored 2 runs and had 4 RBIs.

Baltimore (10) at Milwaukee (5): Tom Wilmarth (25-5.4) (10-22) over Dan Burton (30-4.9) (26-27). Wilmarth allowed 9 hits, 2 walks and struck out 1. At bat, he had a hit and scored 2 runs. Burton was 18-9 at one point, but has gone 8-19 since. SS Jake Steitz (26-4.7) had 3 hits with a double, stole 3 bases, scored 3 runs and had 4 RBIs.
