Baird got the win, improving to 8-5. He gave up 6 hits and walked 0 over 9 innings. He allowed 2 runs. The Knickerbockers have now dropped 5 straight.

Cleveland used the hitting of Tom Crowell to pick up the win. The center fielder clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Bobcats on top, 2-0. For the game, Crowell had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

Said losing manager Timothy Widholm: "At the end of the day, we've got to play better."
