Anderson Lifts Spiders to 13-9 Win
The Cleveland Spiders topped the New York Yankees by the score of 13-9, with the biggest share of the credit going to left fielder Garret Anderson. Anderson was 4-5 with a double, 3 singles, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 4 times for the Spiders on the day. Cleveland starter Steve Karsay was credited with the win after throwing 117 pitches over 5 innings. His record now stands at 11-9. Cleveland is now 61-74.

Cleveland used the timely hitting of Bernard Gilkey to capture the win. The right fielder stroked a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Spiders on top, 7-5. It was his only hit in 6 at-bats, but he made it count.

"Baseball is about momentum," said Anderson, "and we feel we've got it in our favor after that win."
