Cleveland Nets 6-5 Win Versus Traders
Cleveland beat Chicago at Lakefront Stadium, eking out a 6-5 win. The win was due in large part to second baseman Jim McCusker. He was 2-3 with a double and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Tim Fried earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. He upped his record to 7-9. Joe Hutto was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 1 of 1 save opportunities.

Kevin Musumeci went 1-1 with a walk for Cleveland. The 23-year old catcher had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Jimmy Calhoun. It was his 26th RBI of the season.

"I just tried to make good contact," said McCusker.

The Bobcats now own a record of 46-58.
