Cleveland Beats New York, 5-2
Getting an impressive start from Roger Scherf, Cleveland beat New York by the score of 5-2. The winner was Scherf. He threw 7.0 innings of 6-hit ball. The loser was Ollie Hundley. Tim Fried converted his 24th save in 32 tries.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Tom Crowell? The two-time All-Star Crowell stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put Cleveland up, 4-2. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

After the game, Cleveland manager Daniel Mays applauded the team's effort. "We put some good AB's together," he said.

The Bobcats lead the National Baseball League Eastern Division by 14 games.
