Rangers Win at Cleveland, 8-4
The Texas Rangers topped the Cleveland Spiders, 8-4, in Federal League action at League Park. The player of the game was Texas third baseman Lou Whitaker. The current losing streak for Cleveland has reached 4 games.

Brian McRae had a nice at-bat for the Rangers with two out in the top of the first. With a runner on 1st, the left fielder hit a 2-run home run, which would prove important in the Texas win.

"It's always a heck of a lot easier to get to sleep after a win," Whitaker told the Texas Times. "I know I'll rest easy tonight."
