Cleveland Win Evens Series at 2
The Cleveland Bobcats took down the Chicago Traders by the score of 9-1 and moved into a 2-2 tie in the Divisional Round. The largest share of the credit belongs to Cleveland starter Myron Baird, who threw 9.0 innings of 8-hit ball.

Cleveland used a clutch at-bat from Dan Foley to capture the win. The left fielder hammered a grand slam home run in the top of the third inning to put the Bobcats ahead, 6-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"I made some pitches when I had to," said Baird.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Union Field in Chicago.
