Olivas Swings Bobcats to 9-1 Win
The home crowd had a good time watching the Brooklyn Bluebirds and Cleveland Bobcats get after it.

Benito Olivas was a major factor in the 9-1 Cleveland win over Brooklyn. The Bobcats shortstop went 3-4 with a home run, a triple, a double, and a walk, while scoring 4 and driving in 6. With the win, Cleveland pushed its record to 58-54.

Cleveland second baseman Bobby Magnuson helped the Bobcats go up, 2-1, in the bottom of the sixth inning. With the game tied, Magnuson hit a run-scoring single off Brooklyn pitcher Bob Hill.

"The name of the game is scoring runs," Magnuson said. "We did a good job of that today."
