Bobcats Even Record with 5-1 Victory
Cleveland Bobcats starter Myron Baird found his groove in his team's 5-1 win over the Chicago Traders. Baird, the winner, moves to 8-6. He threw 6 innings of 3-hit ball, while fanning 3 and giving up 4 walks. Cleveland is 47-47 and Chicago, with the loss, 43-50.

Tom Crowell had a big 2-run triple for the Bobcats in the bottom of the sixth inning. With Cleveland leading 2-1 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from 32-year old right-handed pitcher Jose Mojica and swatted a triple to left-center. It was his 4th triple of the season, and more importantly, it put the Bobcats ahead, 4-1.

Baird told the Cleveland Herald: "Sometimes the big stage is not big enough for me."
