Keystones Win, Now 11-5
The Philadelphia Keystones got a stellar effort from pitcher Leonard Stewart, helping Philadelphia score a win over the visiting Cleveland Black Cats, 5-2. Stewart, now 4-0, was the winner. In 8.2 innings, he gave up 8 hits, while striking out 5, walking 2, and allowing 2 runs. Philadelphia goes to 11-5.

James McErvin's at-bat in the bottom of the sixth was significant, coming with runners on 1st and 2nd and the game tied, 2-2. The Philadelphia center fielder hit a run-scoring single off Clarence Byas to put the Keystones up.

"When you are able to locate the ball, good things are going to happen," said Stewart.
