The game was won by Philadelphia with a run in the 9th inning. Ned Cuthbert singled. McBride stepped up to the plate and he stroked a one-base hit. Levi Meyerle then reached on an error resulting in a mighty exciting win for Philadelphia and the 4,962 home town fans in attendance. Even though they scored in 5 different innings, Boston was not able to pull off the win. McBride(12-8) got the victory, allowing 11 runs for the game. Al Spalding(23-2) was given the loss. He was knocked around pretty good, giving up 12 runs in 8 innings.
