Cleveland Upended, 5-3, by Philadelphia
Powered by Victor Dones, the Philadelphia Quakers downed the Cleveland Bobcats, 5-3. Dones went 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for the Quakers. Sid Shafer notched his 11th save in 16 chances. Philadelphia is now 37-45, while Cleveland is 41-41.

Philadelphia used a clutch at-bat from Tom Rosales to capture the win. The catcher hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Quakers ahead, 2-0. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

Dones called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."
