Aiken Handcuffs Knickerbockers, Bobcats Seize 2-0 Advantage in World Series
The Cleveland Bobcats got a strong performance from pitcher Jacob Aiken, who stymied the visiting New York Knickerbockers en route to a 6-3 win in Game 2 of the World's Championship Series today. The Knickerbockers could never get a bead on the right-handed Aiken, who threw 9 innings allowing 3 runs to earn player of the game honors. The Bobcats now hold a 2-0 in the best-of-7 series.

Aiken delivered in the bottom of the sixth inning for Cleveland. With the game tied and runners on 1st and 3rd, the pitcher hit a 2-run double to center.

"We played hard and won," said Aiken. "Sometimes, baseball really is that easy.'

Game 3 is set to be played Friday in New York. The scheduled starters for the game are Cap Howland for Cleveland and Baby-doll McLane for New York.
