Spiders Win in 13
The Cleveland Spiders wiggled past the Cincinnati Reds, 6-5, at Riverfront Stadium. Cleveland pitcher Juan Nieves earned player of the game honors. Roger Pavlik picked up the save for Cleveland, his 1st of the year. Cleveland goes to 30-29, Cincinnati to 31-28.

Late-game drama came in the top of the 13th inning. With no one out and a runner on 2nd, the batter, Darryl Strawberry, hit a single. It helped Cleveland seize the win.

"We'll pop the top on a cold one and get back to work tomorrow," Nieves said.
