Pittsburgh Drops Cleveland, 7-2
The Pittsburgh Oilers called upon starter Joseph Rawlings, and he delivered, leading his team to victory over the Cleveland Athletics, 7-2. Rawlings, who finished 5th in the WL in saves with 3 in 1910, went the distance for Pittsburgh. He gave up 2 runs on 7 hits. The victory gives Pittsburgh a record of 43-38.

The Oilers benefited from a costly error in the top of the sixth. With Alfred Miller at bat and Pittsburgh leading 2-0, the Cleveland miscue allowed Pittsburgh to plate 1 and take the lead, 3-0.

"Joseph was exceptional and he pitched with a purpose," said Pittsburgh manager Charles Bennett.
