Cleveland Beats Brooklyn, 12-9
Bobcats third baseman Bill Harper put his stamp on his team's 12-9 win over the Brooklyn Bluebirds. Harper went 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for Cleveland in the contest. Joe Clabaugh earned the save, his 2nd. The win gives Cleveland a record of 3-6.

Cleveland pitcher Joe Clabaugh contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the ninth. With two down, he hit a cutter to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 1st hit of the season and put the Bobcats ahead, 12-9.

"Feels good to get the job done," Clabaugh said after the game.
