Sephton Clouts 2 Homers in 9-4 Cincinnati Win
Truman Sephton was a major factor in the 9-4 Cincinnati win over Cleveland. The Doves first baseman hit 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. The winner was William Baker, who threw 113 pitches over 8 innings. The left-hander was charged with 3 runs on 4 hits. The Athletics, now 31-28, have lost 4 in a row.

With Cincinnati leading 1-0 in the bottom of the first, Sephton hit a fastball from Ocie Stibbs for a 2-run home run. It was his 3rd home run of the season and put the Doves ahead, 3-0.

"The boys came out and just played their butts off," said Cincinnati manager Edward Neame.
