White Sox Come Back Late to Clip Spiders
Starting pitcher Bruce Ruffin pitched well enough to help the Chicago White Sox beat the Cleveland Spiders by the score of 5-3. The 5th-place Spiders have dropped 4 straight games.

Orlando Miller had the most critical at-bat for Chicago. With one in the top of the ninth inning, Miller hit a 0-1 fastball from Sterling Hitchcock for a 2-run home run. It put Chicago in front, 5-3.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Miller told the Chicago Daily News.
