Olivas Lifts Bobcats to 13-4 Triumph
Cleveland second baseman Benito Olivas was a significant contributor in his team's 13-4 triumph over the New York Knickerbockers. He was 4-4 with a double, 3 singles, and a walk, while scoring 4 times for the Bobcats. After today's action, Cleveland sits at 20-19, while New York falls to 24-15.

Ruben Galvan had a big bases-clearing double for the Bobcats in the bottom of the third inning. With Cleveland leading 2-1 and the bases loaded, he got a slider from former first round draft pick Bruce Owen and swatted a double to left. It was his 7th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Bobcats ahead, 5-1.

"Very good win for our guys," said Olivas.
