Pirates Come Back Late to Clip Spiders
The Pittsburgh Pirates picked up a win at League Park, knocking off the Cleveland Spiders, 4-3. Starting pitcher Butch Henry was an essential part of his team's success. The Pirates bumped their record to 81-56 with this latest triumph.

A crucial at-bat came with a runner on 2nd and two out in the top of the seventh inning. That's when second baseman Lance Blankenship, who is tied for 5th in the FL in stolen bases with 37, drew a walk. The Pirates went on to win.

"Both teams played hard," said Pittsburgh manager Stephen Ginter.
