Pelty Brings A-Game, Spiders Beat Orphans
Cleveland took on Chicago in front of a lively crowd.

Cleveland got a strong outing from Barney Pelty as the Spiders defeated the Chicago Orphans, 7-2, at West Side Grounds 1894-1915. Cleveland, at 43-47, occupies 4th place in the Western League.

It was an impressive outing from the soft-spoken Pelty, who tallied 4 strikeouts in 9 innings and allowed only 4 hits. Pelty, who is tied for 4th in the WL in innings pitched with 192.2, raised his record to 13-9 on the year with 67 strikeouts.

"I was determined to go the distance," said Pelty.
