Cleveland Sent Home with 4-3 Loss
The Detroit Lancers topped the Cleveland Grays, 4-3, in Union League action at Thompson Field. The standout performance belonged to Detroit pitcher and Warren, Ohio, native Red Saalman. Detroit reliever Red Saalman got the win, raising his record to 3-3. Fred Reimer was tagged with the loss. Detroit has won 3 straight, while Cleveland has lost 3 in a row.

Detroit first baseman Roy Callahan contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With two down, he hit a slider to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 71st hit of the season and put the Lancers ahead, 3-1.

After the game, Saalman refused to speak to a reporter for the Detroit Bulletin. "You've accused me of throwing teammates under the bus," he said. "So, excuse me if I decline to answer your questions."
