Black Cats Trip Electrics, 4-3, in Extra Innings
Cleveland picked up a win at Niagara Park, bumping off the Buffalo Electrics, 4-3. Pitcher Phillie Brown was a major reason the Black Cats emerged victorious. John Johnson, who finished 3rd in the GNL in saves with 5 in 1909, was the winner in relief. His record is now 1-0. The losing pitcher was Arthur Stewart. The third-place Black Cats are 35-39.

Cleveland used the timely hitting of Mule Stevenson to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 15th inning to put the Black Cats on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Phillie had good arm action, good stuff," said Cleveland manager Bill Pierce.
