Jack Taylor pitched a complete game at League Park as the St. Louis Browns beat the Cleveland Spiders by the count of 8 to 1. Cleveland was unable to claim the lead after St. Louis went ahead in the 4th inning when they tallied 2 runs on 1 hit. The key offensive moment was provided by Taylor who deflated the crowd as he bombed a two-run dinger. St. Louis rapped out 12 hits for the afternoon. The win was credited to Taylor(7-11) who went the whole way allowing 1 run. The loss was charged to Cowboy Jones(2-1). He allowed a few too many baserunners giving up 12 hits and 7 walks in 9 innings.
